I took razih of the Aserai faction, beautiful town, fully upgraded, 5k something prosperity, install full security garrison and a golden boy governor, continue irrigation, you know the pro plan to stabilize the town, nothing special. On to the next one. Everything's fine at first..... then it just isn't feeding it's self.... just needs too much ****ing food.... alright I bring in some food, sometimes that happens at firsts. But it's not just at first this time...... it all the time, the town just wants too much food and there's nothing left to do about it. I wish I could ask the old owner how he managed to feed it for 1k days.... he's in my prisoners with rest of his faction.... but can't to him... to complex. SO I keep trying drop of some food loads as I go through, but it's never enough, it just always needs more and the loyalty and security just keep tanking when it hits zero. I got babies to make, wives to take hunting and like 30 more town to take over. I'm busy.
SO *** it, I take out my Garrison dump the extra into clan parties (whatever)and let the rebels pop and swat em in the spot. I'm hungry and I'm mad about having to do this, so I just go afk and let the AI siege on f6 while I tab out and go eat, I did have to out them on lose formation 1st, but then I park my char in the corner and Tab'd out.
Come back to this
Eh it's okay, lost few nobles but I have enough saved elsewhere and this is just whatever garrison junk party, don't know why it shows the militia on my side. But something up, there 3 left and no action going on outside. SO up the ladders I gotta go.
WTF they just don't go downstairs now? I guess they DID get up the ladders anyways... baby steps. SO I gotta go find that guy stuck in a corner or whatever.
Luckily killing this jerk routed whatever else was stuck and the battles over.
Now I got high loyalty again and about 300 food left over form the rebels (it'll be gone in 2 days...). Some how the rebels spawn and actually fill the grainer to max, they had 700 and ate over half of it while I built the siege camp. Something might just be bugged or something, I'm gonna keep an eye on it but it feels like just too much food for 5k+.
I almost devastated out of spite, but then I showed mercy. But it made me think, is the solution to just repeatedly devastate the town and let rebels pop until the prosperity is nice and low so I can stuff troops in it? I don't need the notables or the tax, I just want the AI to not have it and to store troops.
