They couldn't sell it because it was half baked.
The "AI"artificial idiots? already have so much trouble with food related things, can you imagine if food could spoil too?Not so much about bread, but I've been thinking more of chickens. Since they exist as animals on the fields, I get so hungry drizzling all over wanting to grill and eat one. I also miss the feature of raw meet spoiling, there should be more of a challange on having to supply food for an entire army in general. Raiding should almost be necessarily needed when going on long campaigns with big army. Or that you need to move slower because you have a herd.
No one rose to its defense?Perhaps they just soured on the idea.

I mean it's fine with me, when I see the AI fall of it's bike I just run over and just steal it's bike!
I remember feeling really good about myself when I had all kinds of chickens and fresh beef and butter for the troops to eat all the time.
Also I almost never built leadership so the moral+ was really important.
It's mind-blowing the number of sieges i've seen lifted because the dumb army commander forgot to stockpile food for more than 2-3 days before marching to besiege, thankfully this seems to be an easy fix and it's already much better than a few patches ago.Ai struggles with food? I anything it should be on the simplest elements to manage. Damn.
This wasn't just a feature that was talked about, it was a feature in WB. Good old cattle...- i have influence to spare so i'll raise an army with the goal of besieging x and z, for this i estimate we'll need z days of food all going well otherwise i will send detachments to raid nearby villages and bring food to the army as needed if we are secure in our numbers to keep up the siege (another feature that was talked about in the dev blogs but dropped out it seems).
Now, it's not a defense of game mechanics, but bread was done on the day, not carried around. You carried around the grain because that stuff dried and kept dry was good for month, in garrison even years for storage.Given the fact that bread was literally the ration of choice for medieval armies of Europe, yes I want bread.
You know your stuff.Now, it's not a defense of game mechanics, but bread was done on the day, not carried around. You carried around the grain because that stuff dried and kept dry was good for month, in garrison even years for storage.
E.g. Roman legionaires got their rations in grain for the same reason: They would make the bread at their camp site themselves. Or some gruel or whatever they had time to prepare. They did obviously eat bread, they however did not get that bread handed out, their guaranteed ration was weighed in grain.
So an army counting grain, instead of bread, kinda makes sense. Not that it is a hill to die on...
I'm making bread IRL lately and can 100% confirm this...They won't implement it. Because it is "too complicated" to make.
It gets simpler after a few **** breads, talks with elderly ladies and getting to know your oven on an intimate basis.I'm making bread IRL lately and can 100% confirm this...
yeah, i know! Im kinda getting good at it now... after a handful **** breads, brick breads more like hahaIt gets simpler after a few **** breads, talks with elderly ladies and getting to know your oven on an intimate basis.
