Hey guys,
I'm playing this game for the first time since I was a kid in the 90s, and I have a few questions. I've read through a bit of the essential reading, and I'm very surprised to see that so much info was compiled on this game, and that other people still enjoy playing it.
That aside, I have a few questions about trade, some that were probably overlooked.
1.) Is it important to space trade out when possible so that caravans arrive say every turn, instead of having everything arrive during the same turn?
2.) Right now in my current game, nearly all of my cities supply Salt, and when I go trade advisor, no city on the planet demands it. Should I just trade this stuff even when there is no demand for it?
3.) Any perks of trading with the food supplies, or is that just good so you have stuff to load on a caravan going to help build a wonder?
I'll think of more questions later I'm sure, but I'm very perplexed by question #2 in particular.
Thanks for the help
