What causes units to diminish? TIA

There is decay of the units as the sit there. It's based on how many units you have, but also doesn't take effect until you take a turn, or something. One of our guys has been experimenting in alpha, it appears to be more complicated than we previously thought.

Ok thanks, I was thinking it had something to do with time and logging in and out too.

Troops: (PMStartingUnits*(0.985^TurnsLoggedOut)+(3*Land*TurnsLoggedOut))
Jets & Turrets: (PMStartingUnits*(0.985^TurnsLoggedOut)+(2.5*Land*TurnsLoggedOut))
Tanks: ((PMStartingUnits*(0.985^TurnsLoggedOut)+(1*Land*TurnsLoggedOut))

Hi D :-)

*waves*

Needed something out of my inbox here to answer a question I was asked and noticed no one answered a question I’ve had the answer to for years. I’ll take it not getting answered and people actively testing it to mean that the good guys won the war and LaF is dead haha.

Best thing I saw all day yesterday was you still kicking around, KoH. Way to kick cancer’s butt.

Thanks Derrick.

Quantities on the private market change when buying units, selling units, and when turns are awarded after a login. After a login, existing units decay at a 1.5% rate for each turn awarded. For example, consider a 10k acre country with 1 M troops available on its private market. If it logs out for 3 turns before logging back in, it will lose about 45k troops to decay and will gain 90k troops for a net gain of around 45k troops:

1000000*0.985^3+10000*3*3 = 1045672
