city knight incomes

One thing in the war island will be different though: you can't get food from anyone. They will be no behind the scenes food sales to keep you going. And capitals cannot support themselves. Once you lose your rural regions, you're doomed.

That would have been the case but not with the new food system. You can't starve a city out.

[Indirik]

Reduced rations cause problems that build up and increase over time. Running a city on permanent half rations should not be possible. Eventually the region should revolt.

[Chamberlain]

I guess the question is how long is eventually

[Indirik]

That is true. Offhand, i dont know how short a city is toward supplying itself. If it produces over half, then it might be able to go for quite a while. Less than half, and it shouldn't take too long.  Production will tank, and then you lose income and recruits. Infrastructure shuts down. Everyone starts to die, then the realm dies.

[Zakilevo]

Ete City at half ration was getting surplus of food. I maintained that for a week and a half and I didn't really feel much difference.

Then again, Selis has 100 bureaucracy so sitting in the city and doing courtier works might make a difference.

[Indirik]

Sandalak city doesn't produce enough to support half rations. That means the city would have to swap back and forth between half and quarter.

Sandalak is the worst city on the continent. Consumes most food due to having most population and produces least gold.

Then it's a good thing the best team has it.

Cant lose with Immortal's like Kurlock, Judge's like Saliv and Great warriors like Klas, Misty, Enkimahru and all the other people who have wounded anyone, actualy cant lose with anyone that is in Sandalak :3

Pride comes before a fall, so stop ruining my chances people.

Unfortunately Ikalak and Sandalak are like fabled scorpion and tortoise trying to traverse the ocean that is Taselak.

Sayeth the realm that actually lost an offensive battle to Ikalak.

[Constantine]

Taselak is controlling the field of battle and Ikalak's in full retreat. Hardly a defeat.
I have no idea how Ikalak manages to always get completely wrecked even when it technically wins a battle.

Last man standing. If you have significant units that retreat with little damage, or you move in reinforcements then of course you might have more troops in the area after the battle. They didn't TECHNICALLY win, your troops where either killed or fled, thus they control the field in game mechanic terms, though they have wisely decided to withdraw.

There is a large difference between losing a battle, and losing a campaign. Tasalak lost the battle, Ikalak potentially lost the campaign.
