Not enough iron

[jjkrause84]

is it just me, or is iron way too rare? It seems like there's maybe one or two plots per continent....

Since with the new resources system you only need 1 or 2 deposits, it's appropriate that it's much rarer.

Niter as well is too rare. In fact I did not see any at all. The AI cannot upgrade units for the most part. I myself was barely able to get a knight. Hopefully they fix these issues with a patch.

No, you're right. Especially if you don't get much red meat or vegetables in your diet. I've been using ferrous fumarate supplements as I was starting to get somewhat anaemic
They definitely helped a lot, I would recommend you give them a try if you're feeling deficient of iron.

Exactly why we need the Civ5 resource system back. Trading was so much more dynamic when a single resource couldn't feed your entire empire.

No thanks; now I am willing to trade my extras since I know I'll have enough.
