Yes that makes sense, if the time without food, and the amount of food available, are defined in a certain way. "Supplies" are pretty abstract, though. With different assumptions about what exactly is represented, one might argue that the number starving should be less than the difference, etc. But ya, maybe the rule is supposed to work that way. We either need an answer from the devs about how it's supposed to work, or some thorough studies of what happens in the game, to really know.

And regardless of that, rabelais' observation of starving units even when supplies exceed demand, suggests there is some sort of a bug, which might or might not be related to what I saw.
