AI War: Fleet Command has the AI draw resources from a separate pool, where it warps in reinforcements and units.Age of Empires notably averts the infinite resources trick, making it possible through smart defenses and expanding to whittle your foe's resources to zero, meaning they turn into a sitting duck(a sitting duck with backup, maybe, but a sitting duck nonetheless).Since trees are the only limited resource without homecity shipments, this can prove to be a tremendous advantage. Bcause this affects only the resources received, not resources gathered, this means that at +100%, that player receives 600 wood out of each tree instead of 300. In Age of Empires III, the player can also set a "handicap" which is a percentage bonus (+0-100) to resource gathering.If you write your own AI, you can give it this ability too, even unconditionally, giving you infinite resources. If you have a look at the AI files, you'll notice that on 'hard' and 'hardest' difficulty, the AI pulls resources out of nowhere whenever they drop to almost zero.
Where did it get the food and gold needed to do this if you gave it none and it cannot produce any? Now start the game and before long the computer will have advanced in level. Now set difficulty to hardest and give the CPU no resources at all. The best way to demonstrate this is to create a custom scenario, create a CPU opponent that has no villagers (only a town center and 2 required buildings for age advancement) and 75 military units (to prevent it from making villagers). On Hardest difficulty, the computer in Age of Empires II actually DOES have extra, invisible resources.It will produce construction vehicles indefinitely. You can test this by destroying everything it has except for its headquarters.
