Grassland fruit. Extra food - no shields.

Resources on Jungle and Forest terrain remain after the terrain is cleared.

And tropical fruits are bonus food resources so they will never be exhausted.

You can even get fish resources on dry land when you clear marshland.

Try the Rise of Rome scenario. There's a marsh fish somewhere in Austria (border Slovenia) IIRC.
The editor will let you put them on marsh, but it will let you put a cow on BG tiles as well. I can't recall ever seeing either of them in an epic game.
I've had fish on marshland before. Grassland fish, woot! It was crazy, I had the tile irrigated and rr'd, and it was some huge number of food. I forget how much, exactly.

IIRC grassland fish = grassland wheat. And you get the commerce bonus too
Another resource question: If you clear terrain before the resource has been "discovered", this nullifies your chances of getting that resource after it is discovered....right? i.e. if you clear your swampland early, you probably won't find rubber in those tiles later....right?

I believe that the initial placement of strategics will remain, even if you clear a forest/jungle/marsh tile before you can see the resource. However, if the resource is depleted, it can only reappear on a tile that is currently a legal place for the resource.
That is correct. Once the computer places, say, rubber on that forest tile, it will appear there whether or not the forest has been cleared.
