Here is a breakdown of how many troops 1 farm supports, and how many farms are needed per 1000 troops (so when you want to train extras, you will know how many farms are needed for the extra mouths to feed). I'm sure a lot of you know this already, but for those who don't....
A Farm produces 138 bags of food per hour, or 172.5 with mana bonus. The following amounts require the mana bonus, applied via the Holy Circle;
Peasants, Foot Soldiers, Pikemen, Archers, Crossbowmen & Spies. |
