Resources distribution analysis
Dio Corkan
So, we have a new industry introduced since this week - House industry, with 5 new resources (sand, wood, clay, limestone and granite), and 4 new items on the marketplace (house raw materials and q1/q2/q3 houses).
Except profit for enterprising players, this changes brought us a new resources distribution on the map.
Who got what and who has more than others?
Which resources are the most important now?
Will it cause new wars for resources between the giants?
Who will be first to get 15/15?
I bothered to play a bit with numbers, and here are the results:
number of regions and countries with each resource + share of each industry in %
Not much to be said about food industry - fruits and fish for everyone, deer and grain only for the strongest.
With only 17% of the regions on the map, house resources should be the most valuable by the basic law of economics, but the same law says that something is most worthy if it is more demanded. Until all players have guaranteed amount of health points houses will be sort of luxury items used mainly cause of the energy recovery boost; but food and especially weapon industry will remain more important.
most valuable resources remain oil, saltpeter and rubber
Interesting fact about rubber is that Asteria has only one on their cores (North of Brazil), while Argentina and Greece occupied safe Bolivian and Nigerian rubbers. 3/5 LETO rubbers are occupied by the enemy in the weakest spots for Asteria/LETO - Australia and France. But India seems to be a very important geostrategical place for LETO, provinding not only congress for member countries, but also rubber regions for Iran and Peru. RoC and Columbia have safe rubbers on cores.
Incredible but (pro)Sirius (15 countries in sum) got no rubber regions on their cores. They only manage to occupy Aquitaine, France (by Poland) and Abkhzazia, Georgia (by Turkey). The new update brought very little to Sirius as well. Only worth mentioning are the two granite regions of "Spoland", and two limestone regions of Lithuania.
Besides their 3 core rubbers (Indonesia, Venezuela and Mexico - occ. by COL atm), Aurora holds only Queensland in Australia (Chile) as Bulgaria lost Abkhazia.
Although there's no rubber, USA seems to be Plato's favourite country as noone except them has more than 8 resources on their cores (not to mention 50 regions which makes occupation of USA a Mission Impossible). They've got 4/5 house resources and now hold 10/15 on their cores, 12.5/15 in sum.
distribution of rubber
Another reason why house resources will be less attractive is the fact that granite, which is the most "exotic" house resource, will be in core regions of: Canada, Indonesia, Nigeria, Poland, Romania, Spain and the USA. The ones in strongest countries are impossible to be held for longer than few days. Indonesia got no real enemies in that part of the world, meaning only Canadian and Nigerian granite are a real option for occupation. When USA left Sirius, Canada got a much better position and so far Asteria/LETO manage to keep them free; while Nigeria is divided between Greece and Argentina, countries that aren't so much under pressure by their enemies.
That doesn't mean there won't be "house wars" at all. In the next days I expect countries to move towards getting less rare resources - limestone, wood, clay but also sand which lacks in giants like Argentina, Romania, Croatia, Poland, Turkey, USA.
Enough for this article. We shall see how much the energy recovery boost on higher level houses will change the situation, as that function of the houses will be for sure more attractive to players.
Enjoy the game.
P.S. sure there's possibility that i missed some of the big numbers by 1 or 2 but that doesn't change a lot

OBJECTION !
Why is Asteria RED ? Why is Sirius BLUE ??
I demand a REPAINT !!!!
Otherwise, a good job.

good.
You should consider too how will be the effects of resources bonus changes. 🙂
glas k'o kuca za clanak...

😁 jedino se sa ovim ne slazem jer mislim da su kuce tezak fail i da niko nece juriti full resorse za to
o7
ne da su fail nego mega fail,onai jadnici se trude sto manje pucati,osim kad se mora,da ostanu u D1 ,D2 ,D3 a da ce sad kupovati i koristiti kuce da povecaju broj fightova i expa aha sve trce,vlasnicima rudara i firmi jednostavno se ne isplati preko kuce skladistiti energiju.
Dakle kao potencijalni korisnici kuca ostaju clanovi D4 i to oni bez firmi i rudnika,kojima je cilj samo rokanje do ludila i koji pretezno kupuju za RL kesh golde a takvih je stotinjak
i samo bih dodao, da vecini nista ne znaci da skladisti energiju ako i dalje dobijaju 10 helta na 6 minuta, a veci "dolaz" helta imaju samo oni koji kupuju power pack ili oni koji trose veci broj cokoladica... znaci opet platise. 🙂
da, to za nize divizije zaboravih da reknem 🙂
glas k'o... kuća, ehehehe
inače, ne vidim kako se isplati imati kuću koja nije q6 ili q7 jer će samo one davati brže vraćanje wellness-a, najverovatnije +10/6
Good Analysis..I can't believe I hadn't subbed you brate...it's done now. 😉
well, i don't write much lately 🙂 thx
odlično
odlicno Mr Hari
hvala Mr Fraser
vote
q6 i q7 kuce bi mogle znatno da promene igru...
I don't think there will be big wars for this new resources, at least not for now. And this placement of resources... only 7 granite bonuses...
Bravo!
Fina analiza.
Kontam da te kuce verovatno nikada necu koristiti.
bice zanimljivo

Bravo Hari 🙂
ZAISTA HVANSTACNO NAPISAN NAKCLA \o/
LET THE HVORCE BE WITH YOU 😃
bravo stari
I'm curious why Plato decided to allot the eUS 8 of the new resources! First the 50+ regions, easy 10/10s on their doorstep, and now this...!?
'50 regions which makes occupation of USA a Mission Impossible..'
Actually the eUS have never been weaker, they currently sit 10th on the country leaderboard in damage, continuing the downtrend that's almost two years old now. If a top five nation were to AS the eUS, said country would be almost impossible to dislodge by the eUS/Pacifica. The eUS getting kicked from Sirius and being unable to secure an alliance prio has made them incredibly vulnerable to this kind of invasion. All an invading country would need do is maintain an Atlantic wall (i.e. ensure regions of the Eastern US remain in US hands) so no Sirius country could attack their flank, otherwise they'd be free to mop up all those easy American/Mex/Jap resources. Its what Serbia should've spent that AS and x2 on imo 😛
Nice read btw, voted o7
Asteria countries don't have time to conquer 50 regions, that's my point. ofc that dmg isn't the problem, but number of regions 🙂
There a horrible ally and they treat their neighbors like carp. I don't respect them, nor have issue attacking them for sport.
good

I doubt that house industry will stir things up, maybe when q7 houses will be introduced.
I think the Housing COs will fade out like Rocket Factories. Admins this time are impressing upon you can't get your Gold back.
I also thing that this is an ultra rich toy and those who are ultra rich still will not buy as they buy candy.
oh, V&S. nice work
pa daj stavi i srpski prevod. ili ochekujesh da svi znaju engleski?
