    Kidnap peasants if there's a decent target. Have your kingdom aid you to pay wages or even release a few soldiers into peasantry. You shouldn't turn down wage rate unless your kingdom is incapable of aiding you.

    Negative 5k income at your acreage is really not that significant, your kingdom can support it easily through aid.

    A few pointers: Have allied mages Mystic Vortex you to remove chastity + Meteors. Keep Nature's Blessing up to prevent storms, it's huge. Love and Peace + Magic Shield are both useful, as well. Keep landgrabbing consistently for the +peasant gain.

    You'll just have to deal with the reduced building efficiency.

    It all depends on how much GC aid your kingdom has to spare, but being below 200% as an attacker in war is usually a very bad idea.

    Keep IA running 24/7 to reduce wages. Gold dragon make situations worse than what they really are. Also kidnap from targets massacred pre-war.

    As said earlier post for gold and you should get what you need.

    It hasn't been said and it's sort of obvious, but I'll say it anyway.
    Keep attacking. You gain pezzies from attacks and if you're already large, you'll help buff that nw gap and hurt their TM ops on you.

    Once you get depoped as thoroughly like you did theres not much you can do apart from sucking it up really and making sure you get aided.
    Most cases only way to regain peasants in reasonable time is outside sources ... kidnaps, trads and solider aid to release into peasantry if sols are abudant (and they shouldnt be in war).
    Homes are useless btw since they mod base growth rate which is again based on pezzie number which you dont have to begin with, its a huge investment in wartimes that serves no purpose, use your creds on maintaining cruicial buildings, dont waste them on homes.

    Going unpaid is a bad idea when you can't hit the next tick. Dropping wages is a non-issue... 50% is sometimes the right number

    Just wait until eow and make sure you take in a lot of sols aid then... not much you can do now until they let up. If they do decide to move on to another target, make your move quickly and take in the aid you need asap.

    He said he's just -10 000 GC / tick, that is nothing for a 1500 acre province so aid can easily pay 200% wages, allowing him to hit much better.

    Yes, 50% wages is correct if your kingdom can't aid you the gc that you need to pay 200%.

    you only need to pay the wages before the tick your army arrives. dont need 10K every tick to be able to send out military btw.
