So I think the recent balance hiccups might be symptomatic of a greater problem. Furs were overbuffed because Tundra sucks. Now people are talking about 'tundra resources' again.
This seems like a similar problem to deserts, and could have a similar solution.
If Tundra starts are really bad without the pantheon, we should buff them a bit. A pantheon should not be required to play Tundra.
Additionally unlike desert (which has 2 pantheons) Tundra has no super-food tiles. Desert has flood-plains to make up for lack of food.
My proposed solution:
Flat tundra tiles with an improved resource get +1.
Probably remove the +1 from stars and sky and add +2 per city. (Making it similar yet different than Spirit of the desert.
Questions:
Do you like the idea?
Should the +1 be restricted to non-forested tiles as well as flat tiles? (With recent nerfs to forest I'm not sure.)
Do you have alternate ideas or ways to improve this one?
