That's a very good point you make, Ashanta. I noticed this same phenomenon. I send a massive army to reinforce in perfect timing to beat the troops, and they just come right back.
Also, about the food. I feel that Evony has been working hard to give food bonuses left and right. So much so that now the troops never seem to die. I am thinking about letting my food go to 0 and watching what happens. I don't think my troops will even die. I just wonder if I really will be able to support an army with this kind of slow-production of food, but troops that never die.
