I noticed that Sparta and Rome can export stuff to other regions but in the trade scroll it doesn't show any good being exported yet rome and sparta still make money off of exporting, is this maybe because they have hidden resources and if it is then how can I make it that they can't export the hidden resources for profit?
Also I noticed that Rome has mines yet no gold or silver to mine, why is that?
Iron mines, copper mines, you can mine lots of things..
I think it might be because they are "famous cities" so they have to be good for something..
they trade (read buy from other cities) and sell that on their own markets for profit and they sell the traded goods further to other cities
That must be it..
No, no, no. Rome exports copies of Rome: Total War and Sparta exports Spartan: Total Warrior... duh...
oh i already thought why there where no soldiers to defend the borders the
the new Ceacar X console was out
I hear they have it at the Curia at Arretium. Last one there's a rotten Roman!
hahahahahaa i have beaten you, you're a rotten roman oh wait this is a Claudius 78, noo i've been ripped

Guess-a what? The pig-dog store just called, and they are out, so you go round there sharpish, eh? Already. :tongueg:
On a slightly more serious note, the hidden resources control stuff like unit production. Adding both trade resources and hidden resources has been done in mods. Removing pigs, dogs and Sparta should be OK, it just means noone gets wardogs, incidental piggies or Spartan Total-Hoplites.
Not too sure about the pigs and dogs, they do not show up as requirements for building those units, unlike spartans. I believe you can build them anywhere, I think the pig/dog resource is a forgotten remnant in the files.Quote:

In browsing the regions in the past, every city seems to have pigs and dogs.
I was surprised to see that Syracuse also was blessed with "sparta".
And sure enough, you can produce Spartan Hoplites there.
I'm surprised to learn the goods "sparta" and "italy" generate trade value. Maybe it's a tourism business.
Nah, Sparta exports her young men (for whatever reasons) and Italy is th cultural export (yes that is way to build a proper Roman house).Quote:

Maybe Sparta can export Molossian hounds? Those dogs were vicious..
well actually did sparta "export" spartan mercenaries
Just looked at the files. Dogs and pigs are generally not to be found in the east or in Africa, but pretty much everywhere in W/Europe.
There are 2 cities (nicomedia, ancyra) that have dogs but not pigs, but no cities that have pigs but not dogs.
Syracuse has "sparta" and "italy".
Rome has "rome" and "italy".
