    Hunting tiles, what do you get from them?

    Hunting got added to March of Empires a couple of releases back.

    There are 4 types of tiles that have resources, and they are:

    • Forest
    • Plain
    • Mountain
    • Rocky Woods
    On the tiles that are lucky enough to have the hunting symbol on them, they will have a quality of the tile:
    • Exceptional
    • Rich
    • Plentiful
    • Great
    • Fair
    • Sparse
    • Barren
    The further down the quality list, the less likely you are to get food from the tile, and you will get less.
    My experience has shown that the tiles will allow you to gather the following types of resources, and I've classified the amount you get as well.
    I have classified them as 
    • High (pretty much guaranteed to get some regardless of the quality)
    • Medium (Plentiful or better will have these, lower tiles)
    • Low (You might get some of these on Plentiful or better)
    The table is:

    Food Forest Plain Mountain Rocky Woods
    Tough Meat
    High Low
    Wild Chunks
    High
    Fatty Meat
    Medium Medium
    Red Berries
    Low
    Gamey Chops
    High
    Wild Veggies
    High
    Nutritious Reeds
    Low Low
    Plump Chops
    Low
    Green Berries
    High Low
    Wild Mushrooms
    High Low
    Perfect Meat
    Low Low
    Red Mushrooms
    Low
    Basic Flora
    High Low
    Quality Shanks
    Medium Medium
    Truffles
