Farming 10s to feed Massive Armies
Feeding massive armies with 10s.
btw this is for Age 1
When people have armies that eats 50-200Mill per hour they all say hit lots of 10s. I have never really been able to figure out how that works because of the cost of the farming.
Lets say somebody is eating a easy number like 100mill per hour and has 10 cities. 10Mill per hour in each city.
And lets say there looses are 4k Archers 4k Scouts 2k Warriors per NPC hit.
Simple math
4k Archers = 1.4 Mill Lumber and 1.2 Mill Iron
4K scouts = 800K lumber and 600K iron
2K warriors = 200K Lumber and 100K iron
Total = 2.4Mill lumber and 1.9 Mill iron. per NPC 10 hit
They need to hit 12.6 (so 13) NPC 10s per day.
31.2 Mill Lumber
24.7 Mill Iron
Per day.
There city can only make 24 Mill Lumber or iron in a day (if they have a really good politic hero might make 1.5Mill per hour meaning 36Mill per day)
were is the extra res coming from?
I have always survived from 5s and 10s to feed my army once it was eating 80mill per hour, I do not understand how people can feed armies that eat 200mill per hour, and yes there is lots like that.
Please do not say "Bots" because even if they had bots farming for them, They still need the res.
So how is it done???
