Firstly, here's the link to the other topic about the same thing:
https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,381046.msg9064276.html#msg9064276
I also commented on that topic. In short, I prefer actually existing caravans going between friendly settlements and the war parties, which can be attacked. I also suggested more on the economy side and where the caravan guards come from (for example: dispatch from the war party).
I'm not an expert on coding, but I can see that making rules for food consumption and sending caravans are relatively simple, but teaching the AI to use those features effectively is the biggest problem. It would be great if someone with coding experience (especially in making AI) can tell me how much effort is needed to make AI control supply caravans effectively.
By the way, historically, this is related to how Vietnamese defeated the Mongolian empire's invasions (3 times: 1258, 1285, 1287-128: Vietnamese evacuated the capital and some other settlements, letting the Mongolian army occupy those settlements but without food; Vietnamese also successfully ambushed the Mongolian supply line; Mongolian army was starving and weakened, and then Vietnamese counterattacked and defeated the Mongolian army. Therefore, I think ambushing and defending the supply line should be included.
