Same thing happening to me

Same issue. When putting resources and relics close to the village, developers neglected to put them anywhere else on the map. Makes for a short game.

This makes me wonder exactly how much testing they actually do. This happens on every single BF map I’ve tried. They should have caught this if they tested the changes.
