Default Size and supply usage

Am I correct in noting that supply usage = 1 * (Unit Size -1)? Makes lots of sense in most contexts.
Well I feel that Caelum is the Last race in the world to need help in any form, but it still bugs me that these large but weak creatures need so much food; it seems they should eat as much as a normal human. Can this be changed? (And what penalty should Caelum receive in return for this?)

Yeah afaik your supply formula is correct .

You can change it in 2 ways :
- Mod all caelans to size 2
- Give all caelans 1 supply bonus ( i would do that because reducing them to size 2 gives them better swarm abilities )

Caelians need to eat at lot, since flying is quite an energy consuming sport!

And even when not flying they have those huge bulges to carry on their backs all day long!
