I think if this is done it will help to sort out cards for what they are worth, for instance is your first shipment worth 300 resources or 200? if it's worth 200 then it would probably be best to send a 300 resource shipment from your home city... you know things like that.
I'd value a fort at 1000w and 200g so 1200 resources (that's about the amount of units a fort could kill on its own from my pov), if you are on your 6th shipment when you reach age 3 would it be more effective to send say 13 musketeers or a fort? I know some circumstances would warrant a fort over others but let's say you are winning a game, is a fort worth more than 13 musketeers? would 13 musketeers help you more than a fort? would a 10% boost in skirmisher attack be a better boost than a shipment of 1000 food?
I really want to dive into something like this because it all has such a huge impact on the game.
any thoughts?
