|colspan="2"|Resources are buildings that are the source of a [[Material|'''Basic Material''']]. These buildings do not require '''[[Material]]s ''' to operate, however , some extensions that can be added will increase the productivity of the resource whilst consuming a different '''[[Material]]'''.

Each [[Ages|'''Era add ''']] adds some new resources to the Map. Furthermore, in 5th era some of the resource buildings and/or their extensions will gain electrification bonus productionin [[Ages#EraV|'''5th Era''']]. Look in the building info window for energy icon [[File:e_energy.png|16px|link=Electrification]]. If it is lit, the production has the electrification bonus. If it is unlit, the bonus is inactive. That could be caused by either the resource building not being connected to the electrical network, or the network has reached its capacity.
