How many troops can xx province sustain?

[unmerged(1662)]

Hello,
I dont seem to suffer greatly from attrition, other than in one northern part of Russia, next to denmark, I put 1,000 troops up there, and a month or so later, the little number next to the troop shows 0, and the count is like 700.

So, how exactly do you tell in the game how many troops a province can sustain?

Thanks,

Its listed in the province menu, support.

You can also take a klook at my FAQ to know everything worth knowing about provinces and attrition in the game. =)

Kuplo,
If you right click on a province, then click 'view' you can see the supply level of it- if your army size exceeds it you will lose troops until the size and supply are equal.
Finally, all troops without a conquistador will suffer attrition over time if not in an owned province.

Thanks Toby,
Is attrition of your troops in an non owned province calculable (sp?), or is it a random event.

Im just wondering, if it's preset to lose 100 troops every 30 days or something, then I know how often to keep sending troops to replenish them, or could it also be a total wipeout by attrition in a province that your only holding and not owning.

Thanks again,

No, it's not random and again, all this can be found in my FAQ.

Attrition

I did notice tho tat i still lost some troops even tho my army was either at or a bit below the support lvl.

frm 30 to 29/28 when the support lvl was 30

There are other factors to take in account though like winter (-10), plundered provinces, ...

LOL !!

It's amazing, no matter how many time you post in a thread 'read my FAQ', people just don't care =)

Well, I guess some just can't see a good advice even of it hits them right between the eyes
