So you're saying we can only wage war in the fall now, otherwise our regions will rebel? That's pretty rediculous foundation in my opinion. Half our dang regions are in the negtive and Theirs no way we can actually wage war without half our sources of gold rebelling due to low food. It has been WAY to long since I've had a good battle!

I think that what it actually means is that wars will have to be limited in length.

You have to save up food for two or three years, then wage war for a summer/fall. Then save up food for two or three years, then wage war again. The objective of wars would be to destroy the enemy's food production, then have food of your own ready to stabilize conquered regions.

Which is not the kind of war Aurvandil likes to fight. Ya'll like barnstorming urban assaults and drawn-out marching wars of big armies.
