I have a major issue with this game. You claim that food and weapons spoil yet you allow these poor civilians to chop wood without tools and take EXTREMELY out dated medicine. If this was a real country it would've had a revolution by now.
I just had a very strange glitch. I went to war and immediatly all of my warriors died. The women stopped making babies and the counter said there was -400000 men. It reset my population back to 1000 and now I have to wait for my population to recover.
