resource & army questions

Hi all, any help is appreciated:

1. I've just discovered that some strategic resources can be depleted. How does this work? Does it go by the number of turns, or by the number of units produced requiring the resource? Is it wise to only put roads over one of a given resource at a time?

2. Can armies be broken up without killing the leader? Can I take apart the army, load it onto two caravels, then reform it on another continent? Can one unit in an army be taken out and swapped for another?

Thanks for your help!

1: each resource has a chance of depletion per turn. it's in the .bic, you can get to it through the editor.

2: nope. can't break up an army. at all. you can disband it... that's about it.
