Patch notes relieved that starting resources will more consistently be placed around your landmark TC; and what I’ve noticed so far in watching the content creators is that ALL THE RESOURCES; appear to be at least 8 tiles away from the Landmark TC??
IFF, indeed that IS the intended spawn this means that Dark Age Rush will now be more impactful ESPECIALLY against blind TC expansion builds!
Since for sure Gold and Stone appear to CLEARLY be outside the TC protective firing range; you can tower/sit on those resources with your early army to force your foe to make units and therefore delay their expansion plans.
This is a good RTS decision.
