Thought it was 5 days, gradually? Wouldn't you start losing troops that first day without provisions?

5 days safe, while your provisions run down. Then 5 days of gradually losing more and more men. It's not until the 10th day that you have the same level of losses that you would have gotten on the 6th day before the change.

Sheesh, next you're going to be telling them what the "hack Battlemaster" action for Infiltrators does...  >:(

There is no such option, don't be silly.

There's a big difference between describing the way, say, all the fame points work, and describing how to not let your troops all die when marching through starving regions.
