Realistically yes, but gamewise the additional amount produced never amounts to anything.  Otherwise you should get some small increase, +1 for every 5 (or whatever) pop.
Your agonizer, please.

Perhaps something to mention to Kyrub or Yitzi then? :)

Well, I have no idea of what would be "fair," and I was just discussing BU's premise.  Sometimes gameplay trumps realism.  If you didn't get a standard amount of resources with your base, and your starting base were on a flat, arid, low square (no look first), so you were penalized on everything, you'd be screwed.

I've thought about base square yield...and anything other than what it is would be seriously worse for gameplay.

* Random quote

And when the hourglass has run out, the hourglass of temporality, when the noise of secular life has grown silent and its restless or ineffectual activism has come to an end, when everything around you is still, as it is in eternity, then eternity asks you and every individual in these millions and millions about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.
~Soren Kierkegaard 'The Sickness Unto Death', Datalinks
