Copper and tin are both somewhat rare, throw in the need to aquire a fuel to smelt it and it is still an unaccessable alloy to the majority of Cantrians, but it might be just the thing to help kickstart a few interesting mountain civilizations which use all sorts of alternative technology.
But the problem is that the original intention for Bronze was to be an inferior metal to Iron and Steel so Bronze either has to be made easier or Iron and Steel harder. I don't think solving the problem would be the latter so what can be done to solve this problem? Here are a few of my solutions...
1. Take out the rarer resource (phosophorus) in Bronze making
2. Add more phosophorus throughout Cantr as an available resource (thus making rare no more as well as there are other industrial uses for the stuff)
Those are the solutions that have been tossed around in the past but the 2nd solution is out of Resources hands (that is a Jos only decision from my past experience on the Cantr Staff).
