Possibly the biggest imbalance in the trading/production mini-game is firewood at 4 per. It is such a rapidly accumulated early-game resource and now that I've discovered its trade value I suspect this whole balance discussion is moot. On my Waterworld map I dumped the reed farms and ropes, put up a few more forester/chopper combos to accelerate firewood production and everything else I need is flowing in through traders with firewood as payment.
