SUPPLY

• Armies are supplied to the extent provided through foraging in the hexes themselves (ports can also provide supply), as follows:
  

=> All armies are fully supplied this SUMMER round.

UPKEEP

• Upkeep cost is paid in the Supply and Upkeep phase, after having received the round's Army Replacement Points, adding to the factions' current Army Replacement Points pools, as follows:
  • Pontus: 1 + 24 = 25.
  • Rome: 3 + 24 = 27.
  • Armenia: 5 + 8 = 13.
  • Egypt: 0 + 12 = 12.
  • Syria: 0 + 8 = 8.

• Upkeep cost for each army amounts to 2 plus its current size in Army Replacement Points (i.e., 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).

• After payment of upkeep costs, Army Replacement Points remain as follows:
  • Pontus: 6 (-19).
  • Rome: 10 (-17).
  • Armenia: 6 (-7).
  • Egypt: 2(-10).
  • Syria: 1 (-7).

Instructions to be provided by way of Slitherine PM on February 15, 9 PM (Stockholm time) at the latest.

Reinforcing Existing Armies

• Existing armies can in the Recruitment phase be reinforced up to size 5 (of its original size) in a controlled and unsieged town or city in a currently controlled province.

• The cost of reinforcing an existing army amounts to twice the size increase in Army Replacement Points (e.g., 2 Army Replacement Points if reinforcing from size 3 to 4).

(Please note that reinforcing armies that lost or drew battles in the previous round will reduce their movement allowance, unless commanded by generals.)

Raising New Armies

• A new army can in the Recruitment phase be raised in any hex containing a controlled and unsieged town or city and located in an originally controlled province, provided that there is no enemy army within 6 MP.

• Armies can only be raised in sizes 2, 3, 4, and 5 (i.e., not 1).

• The cost of raising a new army amounts to 4 plus twice such size in Army Replacement Points (i.e., 8, 10,12, 14).

Obtaining Generals

• New generals (whether replacing killed ones or not) can be obtained at a cost of 4 Army Replacement Points, provided that the new general can then only appear in the hex of an army located in a controlled and unsieged town or city (whether the province is currently controlled or not).

• Once having been obtained in such a way, the general will start commanding that army with immediate effect.
