Have you succeeded in housing all your followers/troops? As I see it I must have an active army, reserves who live in town and cycle in and out, and a lot of serfs. Thousands of reserves and serfs of iron who can survive off the and in a continual winter. <br/><br/><br/>Actually considering how involved with the sea I am they are probably mostly fishermen not farmers.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>I didn't think of the town thing. I was working on spending the majority of my money on Barracks. Cycling my troops on a weekly basis sounds effective, and will save me roughly half on housing.<br/><br/>Sadly however, I've doomed myself and already declared myself on the border of my empire, and I'm expecting an attack at any moment. An empire that already outnumbers me 5-1. So making that 10-1 for any amount of time just seems like a bad idea...
