Attrition (Interim statement)
This is an interim statement on attrition since the game clearly has a number of existing faults around this area. This FAQ section should at least give you some clues about the level of attrition and support capacity of various provinces. Investigation has shown the following facts.
Attrition rates are as follows based on province and prevailing weather/climate conditions
Base 5%
mild winter +2%
normal winter +5%
severe winter +10%
tropical +5%
I can detect no other factors affecting attrition rate.
Support capacity seems to consist of the following
Base capacity = N
Army camp gives +2 (unknown if this counts for non-controller of the province)
If you control the province then + base tax rate x 0.2 (unknown if this counts for non-controller)
If you are an owner occupier then x5
If you are the controller then x3
If stationary (besieging) then x2
Otherwise x1
+ leadership effect (see below)
Attrition occurs on the first day of every month and is evaluated based on the total number of units present as against your capacity. This means that quite a large enemy army can be present with no attrition whilst your army is being affected. If you exceed the capacity then you suffer attrition, there are no gradations, it is all or nothing.
Leadership seems to be something of the order of +1.4 to +1.7 capacity per point of manoeuvre ability of the leader. This has only been evaluated in a single high capacity province so this may be rather inaccurate.
Attrition is a highly important subject so I will be revisiting it later in the context of discussing strategy and tactics.
