CS With No Resources- A First

[Convict]

Well it is for me- late in the game I met Mbonzo- Congo (spell check) and they have no resources. No one has stolen ground so it looks like they started with none (apart from bananas).

For me this is the first time I have seen it. I do play with slightly more CS's than normal, but even so...

No luxuries at all? That is a first. They will probably have some late game strategics though.

I saw that once a few games ago. Vancouver was on a single tile island with no resources. It was probably because I cranked up the number of city-states to the max and the map arranger was struggling to find places for them all.

They probably have a late game strategic resource.

But any increase past default can cause there to be insufficient luxuries to go around. This is because

The script manually adds luxaries to majors but not minors.
Instead for minors to looks for a hex near both a luxury & strategic resource but it could run out.

The Earth map frequently don't give any lux to some cs. And some special settings can influence that. Under ''normal'' settings that's pretty rare.

I've seen a few of that in my 1.5k hours of play.

If cs could be in tundra tiles then resource less cs is possible.

How about that. A literal banana republic.
