"Steal Provisions" when did this happen?

I just picked up DEI again after some AFK, just wondering when did this happen? Anyone know the table to undo it? Only a spy stealing 2,000 men's provisions seems a little impractical compared to the old spike of the local water.

So its the description that bothers you? Because the old Poison was way too OP and caused a lot of casualties compared to the new one

No don't be silly, it's the concept. Poison is far more realistic than sneaking off in the night with an armies provisions lol.
I agree it sometimes is OP. But just wind it down a little... As long as it can still be devastating when you have an elite spy, I mean that's the point of having an elite spy.

How about setting fire to the provisions, that should be quite easy

So -100% ammunition for skirmishers and -100% melee damage from spearmen then? I think ye ole poison, which is what I originally asked about is just easiest. I'm sure CA felt the same, hence their decision.

Or misleading the baggage train of an army? Or do you you think you can stockpile bread for like 6000 men? Use ur imagination and some fantasy! There are plenty of explantions! Don't pick on a single word buddy

Spies still cause casualties to town and city garrisons. And even if the poison action were nerfed, it's still super easy to manipulate foreign spies, and use multiple spies to whittle an army of elites down to half strength in a single turn.

Be like other great generals in history. Adapt!
