=== Resource Bonuses ===
The starting resource bonuses use DWORD pointers to find their appropriate code to run:
* Wood and Ore - AF FF 4B 00 
* Crystals - D6 FF 4B 00 
* Gems - E1 FF 4B 00 
* Mercury - EC FF 4B 00 
* Sulfur - F4 FF 4B 00 

These DWORD pointers are located at the following addresses: 
* Castle - 0x0C01B4 
* Rampart - 0x0C01B8 
* Tower - 0x0C01BC 
* Inferno - 0x0C01C0 
* Necropolis - 0x0C01C4 
* Dungeon - 0x0C01C8 
* Stronghold - 0x0C01CC 
* Fortress - 0x0C01D0 
* Conflux - 0x0C01D4 

Note, that you need to edit ScnrStar.def to reflect any altered resources. 

The amount for each rare resource is most likely determined by the function at 0xc009e: {{unk}}
: minimum: c745f0 33333333 ''(mov [ebp-0x10], 0x33333333)'' c745f0 3333EB3F  ''(mov [ebp-0x1c], 0x3feb3333)'' 
: break between the two: eb 0e ''(jmp 0x0e)'' 
: maximum: c745f0 66666666 ''(mov [ebp-0x10], 0x66666666)'' c745f0 6666E63F  ''(mov [ebp-0x10], 0x3FE66666)'' 

The amount of wood and ore are most likely specified at 0xbffaf: BA 0a000000 ''(mov edx, 0x0a)'' B9 05000000 ''(mov ecx, 0x05)''
