I must be getting old but it sure cost alot for troops nowadays,,435,021.43 Geos ..when did they start charging more geos for when armies are on the move, that takes the fun out of the game.wow my 100 troops have a cost of 6668.09 geos to upkeep, I thought the last 2 weeks my geos where going faster than i was spending them, just noticed this now after sending a massive attacked. who can afford to keep playing at these prices, has anyone else noticed this the last 2 or 3 weeks?ahh just found out from a allaince member about the new army rules, this stinks.

This must be either a bug or you don't have oil and lose geos for that.

Exactly. When your # of armies goes beyond the ratio of 2:1 compared to your number of cities, the cost per troop goes up exponentially. Get more cities, or disband some of those armies!

I've found that a ratio of 2:1 + 10 armies keeps costs reasonable still (depending on number of troops in those +10 armies of course). Only saying as this can allow a player to undertake a wider scale attack which is sometimes necessary.
