I have a question or two about things if anyone could help me out
How do items that feed men work (and nature magic feeding men for that matter) is it just X number of supply points or is it literally X number of units or what? (i.e. endless bag of wine says 25 men is that 25 supply points or 25 units i.e. will it feed 25 jotun?) and the cauldron of food or whatever (20 nature gems) how many does that feed since it doesn't say.
I know a devil is more powerful than a jotun but I can't really figure out WHY... by the raw numbers they come out fairly even really but 10 devils can stomp 40 jotun without a single casualty. I MUST be missing something (and it's not the 30 morale unless that has a combat effect OTHER than routing.) the devils have barely more hp but thier armor seems much weaker... maybe it's in the defense and attack skills... or the weapon... hehe could be the heat too weakening the giants... food for thought anyway.
also I've noticed that when I set the neutral province strength up high that the first few rounds the "squares" in neutral provinces showing troops are huge but after a few turns they all drop down to various sizes of small. If I attack em early with (so far ulm/abyssia/ermor) I get the smackdown (jotan can handle it BARELY) but if I wait about 6-10 turns then attack it's as if I left the neutral provinces setting alone... I am thinking they starve to death because it chooses the wimpiest unit possible and then recruits as many as possible and they all starve lol. would be nice to see the neutral province strength affect overall unit strength and type rather than just the number of them so that didn't happen.
**EDIT** heck I mean wouldn't it be neat to hit a neutral province at strength set to 9 and find an arch devil in command of a horde of demons/devils and a brigade of mages and when you win you get a few choice magic toys that the demon was using as well as a rainbow of gems from the mages (if they didn't use em up slaughtering you hehe)
