Wood is a primary, basic, natural, building resource.
Usage
Wood is primarily used in building construction, followed by production of advanced resources.
The balance of natural resources (other than food) required during development shifts throughout the growth of a city. But once mature, and mostly investing in equipment production, cities consume more wood than any other resource, though iron and food can be nearly as constrained (the latter by pushing population boundaries).

- It requires Haggling→Marketplace (1) to ship to other cities.
- It requires Negotiation→Consulate (11)→Finesse→Diplomacy→Theft→Basic Thieves to steal from other cities.
- It is protected from theft by the vault's larger "base" resource amount.
- It is vulnerable to raiding.
