See the 3rd GM SC post in that thread.

The information given in the blog post at the beginning of this thread will be more accurate than the information in that old forum thread. Just as an FYI, things have changed a bit over time and that is very old information. We'll have more details at release as well, of course.

Begun the Land Wars have. 


Lighten up dood, we haven't even got the resources yet. 

Chill and wait patiently for what happens next Wink



I think he's right especially with the rarer resources and permanent mines.

Also speculating about how a upcoming release will go is interesting

Absolutly. But now the problem is, if all of your alliance towns are centered in 1 central location, there are only so many resources that will spawn there. 

So far the general alliance behavior has been central regional hubs. But now I think there will be a good case for very diverse locations. Something like the Dwarven Druids have will allow them to harvest all sorts of resources. 


gives Hub alliance a better chance at monopolizing a resource, they may not have a good variety but they can have their own items to trade or keep the world from obtaining.
