Giant Stealthy Pig to defeat Vanheim

I had 10 Ravenous Swines in enemy capital. That capital had 900 supplies. As Yomi, I didn't notice any difference. It seems this doesn't work.

most yomi are gluttonous, need not eat, demons as it is.

The starting troops are humans. The capital only had 900 supplies, and the pigs used well over 1000 supplies.

how could a giant pig be stealthy? Hungry Farmers would notice a giant walking Jam. I would (yum!).

Why would you use a useless pig if the only thing it would do is eat the food of your army? Basically, this unit is worthless except for denying the enemy of supplies, and because stealth-gluttony doesn't work, this unit is worthless.

That's too bad, it really is an excellent idea. Perhaps someone can talk the Developers into making gluttony function as a two-edged sword (aka supply-hit determined by combining both allies and enemies with gluttony in a province), atleast in some cases? Or maybe just a ritual spell that will directly reduce the supplies in a province?
Moving your giant stealty were-pigs around would be a lot more fun though.
