Hey guys,
Let me just provide some context here:
Race: Faery
Personality: War Hero
NW: 800k
Land: 3,000
Military Setup: 30k ospecs, 20k elites
So we are in the middle of a war right now and the province mentioned above is in the middle of being chained. We have two ways of handling him being chained (in regards to the Land Lust spell), I'll explain both scenarios below and the basic concept behind each:
Scenario 1:
The province LLs in the middle of being chained, not using full mana but some to gain acres. Then he uses remaining mana once armies return to LL.
Idea behind this: If the prov LL while being chained, he will have less desertions per tick resulting in him retaining more NW
Scenario 2:
The province LLs once his armies return (if he is at 100% mana before armies return, obviously would use to either LL or do something else), increasing his max pop resulting in him having to release less troops in order to attack
Idea behind this: He will continue to be chained while waiting for armies to return, so mana and runes used prior to armies returning to LL will only result in enemy gaining more acres from him. LL while being chained in scenario 1 is somewhat counterproductive.
Limitations that may affect outcome: Lack of runes, mana % available
So my discussion is, which scenario should be used? Are the pros and cons to each? Does one scenario clearly have more advantages in handling chain and retaining NW over the other?
