Default Re: Finite resources vs infinite resources
I played a finite resources game once, but what happened was:
a) I took care of my colonies' ecosystems, and ended up with infinite resources again.
b) By NOT stripmining resources, I ended up with more research as a side effect.
c) The eventual AI confrontation became a low-volume, high-tech defense against the resource-strangled Last gasp of medium-volume, medium-tech ships. Me having piles of maintenance-free sats & fighters just made it worse.
