    I think the reinforcement system is a step in the right direction but the way its currently implemented lacks impact.
    The fact that you get resupplied as soon as you take a regional capital is too easy. I think it would be better if only supply depots provided reinforcements.
    You would have to build and protect them as you advanced which would slow down the pace of conquest. I think it would also be more realistic.
    I wonder if its possible to remove reinforcements from cities?

    Thoughts?

    doesn't really make sense i dont see why you wouldn't be able to recruit more men in cities you capture, after all some of these cities have pretty huge populations....i mean maybe if you had to wait 2 turns before reinforcement automatically started once you capture a city.

    Well if you think about it, you press end turn and it takes 2 weeks for the troops to get their replenishment. However how much it is. So I guess it takes minimumlly 2 weeks before your units can start replenishment.

    I think if a city is under a certain amount of control with other factors, you should be able to do a 1-turn replenishment for a small cost. Otherwise I like the new system - it makes replinishing main armies more difficult and time consuming, slowing down your advance.

    I don't feel slowed down at all. Since replenishing does not cost anything I am breezing through the campaigns.

    Maybe a mass armament or even the mass mobolisation tech would be in order so that you can replenish your troops the old way for a somewhat larger cost.
