i swear to god every battle is evenly matched with about 3k soldiers on each side. i kill about 5/6 of their men while only taking 1/6 casualties on average. then the very next turn what do i see? another full stack that wasn't there before. this is fuckin nuts
Ahhh.... come on now. Its mercs!

yes its a B! and yes its not fiar. But come on! 3 Towns!!!!

Dude get a 1full stack, 1/2 stack, and 1/2 stack of crappy units. The full stack fights and takes over cities, the 1/2 stack replenishes lost men, and the 1/2 stack of crappy units come to the cities to garrison them.

Your 1 full stack never stops moving!

Now get on it! And don't take many casualties!

The only people who "need" the money script are people who play a "Sim City EB" type game.
--That is they stay put where they are and build up their cities. And they expand very rarely.
