Default Re: Do Event-Obtained Troops Cost Upkeep?

I've had important armies pickup starvation and disease because of the important army marched into the province struck with the militia event.

The militia event should provide fewer units of much better quality. The gold and supply upkeep combined with low morale weak units makes this event bad 80% of the time.
According to the manual you shouldn't pickup disease from the first round of starvation so a disband command would eliminate that worry.

In that case the worst thing that could happen would be that you move into a territory, militia event occurs, and then a fight happens. I'm not even sure if your troops go through their "eating" cycle in the turn order before fights are resolved. If they do, then you would have to deal with the morale penalty during the fight, if they don't then it wouldn't be a big deal.
