i can understand these valleys being conquered early on, but when a server gets to a certain stage these valleys dont have any effect. what i mean is when you resources go over the capacity limit your city is no longer producing any of these resources so effectively the valley is useless. my main gripe is about lvl10 forests they give you a 23% bonus production however if you farm them you get 1m lumber on average from them per hour, so in my calculations to get a better return from conqering them, your city with the valley would have to have a base production of 4m lumber per hour. please tell me if this seems foolish but surely its better to leave these valleys empty?
