Resources and Resource Multipliers

Resources is the currency in LOTR BFME. They are used to construct buildings, train units and also equip upgrades. Resources are produced by buildings such as Farms, Furnaces and Lumber Mills. Citadels also provide a small amount. Evil resource buildings can fire arrows helping you defend your base. Another way, while also providing experience to your troops and giving you more power points, is killing a neutral unit. Neutral units such as Goblins will attack any team and try to kill you. Destroying their home will give you money. The Scavenger power for Evil or Mordor will give you resources for every kill meaning a massacre is resourceful. You can also put some units into slaughter houses, killing them, and giving you money in return. With Gondor, a Marketplace as resource upgrades. With multiple resource buildings, they can provide a discount for many things. You always start with 1000 resources and I would use that for resource buildings to fund you from the earliest stage. 

In the Campaign, getting a resource bonus will increase the resources produced from your resource buildings. Getting a 20% bonus will make the multiplier x1.2.

Farm produces 30 Resources. Multiplier is x1.5.

50% of 30 is 15. 30 + 15 equals 45. It now produces 45 resources. Simple!
