Provisions?

[fodder]

i suppose it's even more complicated in that peasants and troops consume food from the region's stores once a day at sunrise only...

[Zakilevo]

I really hope we will get an option to pick up food as provisions soon...

I got provisions by staying in a food producing region for a few days.  10% per day.  Does anyone know how much I will use up in a starving region?  10% per day again?

[Indirik]

20%

So do you use up provisions in a region which is "going hungry"? That happened a few days ago in BT.

I just realized that with our current system, you will never get provisions while in a city.  Not sure if that is intentional or even desired, but I like it.

yes, it is.

Note that currently you can only get provisions while being in a region producing *surplus* at full turn. So no cities, better luck with those self-sustaining townslands.

I don't like this feature. This has the ring of the old estate system. Cool in theory, but in practice an annoyance that makes it unnecessarily difficult to enjoy the game at its best.

On another note, this feature does not yet have a wiki page. It would be good to get the full details of the feature on there soon seems as this is already implemented on stable.

Would under this: http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Manual/Economy heading be a good place to put it? Or one down, under food?

[egamma]

It should go under http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Manual/War someplace. Either on the Units page or on a new page.

I think this is to prevent everyone to stay at the city forever. When enemy is outside your door, in the next region to the city, you should come out gun flashing and shooting like mad. In this case, sword flailing  :P

Back to Provisions. We are expected to remain in Rural Regions to gain enough Provisions. This applies more accurately if we are to TakeOver a City, in the next region to the rural region. But what if the rural region is at a low capacity? We could take like how many real months before we able TakeOver a City. That way we need lot of patience. And this teach us never to mess with the peasants by looting them :(

While it's inconvenient, it's preferable to having your troops starve with no way to prevent it.

[Zakilevo]

I am sure in time there will be more ways to fill your provisions faster and easier.

The current system blows because it is still in its early stage. It was implemented as it is because with caravans gone, there was no way for people to support their troops in a starving region.

It is an advantage over previous conditions. It has no disadvantages. At no time are you worse of than you would be without this feature.
