Strategy: ResourceSender

Purpose to periodically send resources to other villages
When to use when you have spare resources in one village, need resources in another or need to feed defence troops or a World Wonder
When to avoid when you dont have a market or using to other players as may violate 1 hour production rule

Uses your merchants to send resources between villages periodically or using clever wait as often as possible.

You can specify if send less than available or to keep a minimum amount in the village for building or troop making. Note if keepresources is used it takes precedance over allow less so may send odd surplus amounts.
