My army wont refill. Supplies and Population are plenty. Why?
Hey first of all this is a heavy hitting mod which gives this game sooooo much more depth, its mindblowing. I love your dedication and this project. Thanks!

Now to the problem at hand:
I just started a coop run with Pontos on the Great Campaign map.

After like 10 rounds i had a fight with some stinky bois in my only starter settlement. I did win but had major losses.

The issue: My army refuses to refill manpower. My army was standing like 5 rounds in my region which is without a doubt stacked with enough populus for every single unit and enough supplies to gather from. Nothing.

After like 5 rounds of nothing happening i tested if moving them into my garrison would change it and: IT DID!

Now it refills extremly slow. I have to wait 11 rounds for my xenoi troops to refill. Then we logged off for the night, me slightly frustrated.

Here are my questions:


Why did it work slightly better in the settlement and not at all in the general region?

How can i fasten up the process?

Is there anything else about that i should know or im possibly missing?


Thanks and keep on keeping on!

As far as I know, an army in garrison get´s food more easy than find food outside the settlement, but it decreases the happyness of the city.
When your army is outside the settlement and you give it the stand "patrol", than you get a buffer for refilling you ranks as long as you have enough supplies in the region.

Sweet! Thanks for the lightning quick response my dude.

Alright so Patrol outside of town and there is a balancing act between refilling in garison vs public order. Which... actually makes a lot of sense. Love it!

What still baffles me: Why arent they replenishing at full speed? (one + instead of ++)

or in other words:

What else besides:

-having enough population to refill your ranks

-having enough supply stocked

-having the army garrisoned

can be optimized to make sure the army refills the best?

Feels like im still missing something here.

- Population Classes
There are 4 classes of people for each faction. These have different names depending on the faction:
1) Upper Class (Nobles/Partricians)
2) Middle Class (Plebians/Warrior Class)
3) Lower Class (Proletarii/Commoners)
4) Foreigners

Be sure to have enough of the right people similar to your units


Also important: Character traits and skills of your general. With growing experience you can choose skills that level up the replenishment rate.

Yeah i got the population class thing down. Thats quite intuitive. Right, maybe its my general or smth. Didnt get to continue the save yet.

There is one more thing:

Ive read that its hardcoded into the game that there must be enough populus for all your units for them to start to refill...

i think that bogus tbh. If you happen to know smth about that lemme know!

Other then tha, Love you mate. Big thanks!

Haha ok dude, you´re welcome. I´ve never played a coop match in my life cause I´m in my own world when I play games like Rome TW :)

Enjoy the game, this mod is a masterpiece!
