one more thing until i come back on monday and set you all straight again.

At 100% homes you do not run 60% draft , you run 95% draft, the soldiers are impossible to draft by yourself, so you rely on giving gold you steal and plunder in exchange of soldiers.

The whole point for me , to have a high home strat, is so that you can draft as many soldiers as possible, its no use to keep 65% draft like conventional strats.and you dont live out of income ever either.

When i ran homes from 40 to 80% i always kept enough peasants to cover the workers needed for max efficiency, i didnt know yet that 80% is more efficient than 110% , or apparently its what everyone says.

Either way this are the main points in a high home strat , (Imo)
1. to have as many drafted soldiers as possible, 95% preferably
2. to have at least 8 mod tpa, 50 dpa and as much opa as possible to easily steal.
Playing like this is like playing another game altogheter.That is why you cant evaluate a strat like this with conventional thinking, it just wont make sense.

again = 1000 acres = 35,000 pop, or 38,000 with sciences. = 10000 archers 50 raw dpa, if 5,000 thieves 5 tpa plus science 1.5 = 7.5 tpa thats 15,000 soldiers, and you have 20,000 to 23,000 elites for a mod off of if avian 23,000 avian elites 4 generals double wages =217206 mod offense = mod 217 opa, 50 raw tpa, 7.5 mod tpa. beat those numbers with any other strat.
or if no def specs 33,000 drakes 4 generals double wages =311644 mod offense 311 mod opa 132,000 defense when army home.
Or you could run 10,000 thieves for 15 tpa and all elites, so that no one gets your info and retals on you. I got a dark get my intel even when i had 20 tpa and he had only 8,. so high tpa is by no means a replacement for def specs


Some guy is going to be away for several weeks and i might just pay the tokens so that he sits instead of going to vacations and i will try and do the 1000 acres 100% homes, the problem is not making it, because it will not take more than 1 week , its worth it to see if a province like that can survive by itself or is it a kingdom effort?
