Dynamic Replenishment

How would 3 swordsmen find a moving army to replenish? They probably wouldn’t, since they wouldn’t know the moving army’s exact location. On the contrary, an encamped army’s location can be sent, as they await reinforcements.

Thus, the mod removes replenishment unless the army is garrisoned or encamped in own territory and only for recruitable units in the province, promoting more calculated and strategic campaigns where injured units stay injured so casualties are more meaningful, making camping, reinforcements and overall planning and decisions more important. Compatible and recommended with Population Mechanic for more strategic aspects.

To balance, the replenishment bonus for garrisoned/encampment are 50% base, and can be further enhanced by military buildings. Post-battle enslave option are doubled.

Excludes characters, hordes and events, and makes hordes, undead and chaos unique as only they can now replenish while on the move.

To retain this effect for the player and the AI, AI replenish bonuses and all buildings’ replenishment effects have been removed as well. This leaves farms with growth bonus only. For added farm income, combine with Dynamic Economy.

I didn’t remove blue-line replenishment skills / technologies / followers bonuses as those could be somehow logically explained, if you wish to address these I suggest Less Skills and Declutter the Game.

For more camping options combine with Stances changes.
