My dread is to see Barca being able to hold a good military strengh that allows her to expand more to the west.

My dream will change but for now my greatest dream is to conquer Darfix. I wonder how much gold it will generate.

I think it would be a great idea to have more water routes we could use to move, although it should take high travel times. This way a colonization of Darfix would be easier, but it would be also easier to attack big cities having sea connections.

Sea routes around the outside of the continent would have been nice. I don't see any particular reason why they aren't available, other than a simple oversight.

Getting to Darfix isn't the hard part. That's probably the easiest of all the challenges.

Interesting, may I ask why?

Having enough food to feed a fully populated Giask (148.500 peasants). I think that that is my biggest dream atm..

You should just leave that city rogue, it's not worth feeding. :P

Start paying more than D'Hara for food, and you can probably feed your peasants ;)

Or just make sure my duchy is large enough ;) Besides, I doubt that anyone will be able to sell any food. Fissoa, on who I hoped in the past rather disappointed me ;p

You guys aren't offering enough, 40gp per 100?   Our Dukes can't even buy food from their own REGIONS at that price.     D'Hara pays 50gp per 100, and that's with them coming to pick it up.   Guessing our traders would charge at least 60 if you wanted it delivered to Giask, probably more.  They are greedy and that city puts out a LOT of gold.

Food is probably the single most valuable commodity in Dwilight.   Monsters hit all the food producing regions, Cities are nice and protected but starve as a result.

Dwilight, I think, is a good example of how the food game probably should work.

  I agree, but in this case it's an effect of the rogue regions and NPC's.    Food should be important, but no other island has any trouble holding food regions or constant monster attacks.

I dunno, honestly. It makes us take it seriously, yes...

But it also forces me to revolve *everything* around it, and spend crazy efforts on making sure we get what we requiring without causing price wars or uncontrolled inflation. It also means that unless food is directly involved and our stores are running low, war is out of question. In a way, I consider food to be another kind of maintenance, and I wouldn't want to have to spend the time I spend on it for Dwilight on all the other continents.
