    SO on your land the army takes X amount of food from the province it is in, and in someone elses land it take the same amount of food from their province (plus causing devistation)... It would make keeping wandering armies off you lands much more important and ever add a strategic element to where you garrison you large armies. Perhaps if you are in provinces that does not produce enough food you could have starvation reducing troop numbers as they march, especially if you are besieging a city there...

    So many possibilities...

    This was one thing I was always surprised they never added. I would love to also have visible supply wagon trains that would need guards and can be raided.

    When you form an attacking army you need to delegate how many will be used to guard supply lines. An enemy general can maybe spot the lines if he is between you and your nearest town. Also the ability to forage.

    I think this would add a layer of strategy that would mean the biggest army isnt always the best if you can weaken them thru their stomachs.

    One could get carried away and also suggest water as well that would give fighting in the deserts new meaning.
