Food/Cash usage...

Just wondring but how much food and cash do Mice, Squirrels, Hares, Otters, and Hawks use per turn?

Not sure what the base costs are for each, but until an admin signs on and tells you what the code says exactly I can say that Otters are the most efficient unit, followed by Hare, then Squirels, and lastly Mice. Hawks eat a ton of food.

I have a question to add to this, has the food or cost been altered from standard code?

Actually, I think Beatles calculated this a while back, and hares were the most efficient. I'm not sure though.

I would like to know so i can fine tune my strat.

The base cost for food is $7 i think.

yeah that would help.. Is there any way to get a better price on food? Like do camps help that?

Rudder-Thanks for the info, good thing to know.

There is no way to change the price grains buy or sell for.

Supplementary table: Food and cash consumed by 1,000,000 of each troop type.

code: Select all

Troop               Cash               Food
-------------------------------------------
Mice             $62,500          1,000,000
Squirrels        $31,250          2,000,000
Hares            $15,625          4,000,000
Otters           $10,417          6,000,000

I'm not sure if that link will work, it's a topic in the Lunch. Here's a table of how much each troop consumes food/cash wise. Could someone confirm those cash values? They look wrong to me, based on in-game experience...

agreed because with 4million mice 22million food goes away in a few turns (10 or 11)

also whats the cheapest prices for each unit on public market?

It seemed to me like mice took the most food and otters took the least. Strange.

purekilla2k · Post by **purekilla2k** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 7:30 pm

he's right and that table is very inaccurate but you won't know anyway due to races mostly have +food req for troops and such

Kyrodo · Post by **Kyrodo** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 8:35 pm

I thought hares would take the most food

guess not *laughs*

purekilla2k · Post by **purekilla2k** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 8:37 pm

Est. Consumption: 24,205
Mice: 203,585
Otters: 1,262,649
then again my race takes less to support an army but this is just basic ill try to figure this out before beatles *laughs*
food ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
