Atlantis and upkeep/supply

[ioticus]

i'm not a big atlantis player, but I have to say i'm puzzled as to how/why atlantis especially has supply problems? perhaps you were buying too large standing armies of chaff troops? But even so, how was it that you weren't able to pay upkeep - was ermor's dominion marauding over your own, or were you just losing prime territories in a war?

also, the cauldron of broth sucks. only make bags of neverending wine.

Yes, I was losing dominion to someone, but how does that affect income? Also, isn't upkeep based on troop size? Atlantis' troops are sizes 2+, so they require a lot of upkeep. Any why do cauldrons suck? They provide more supply than bags of wine.
