I've just made another change that shoots two birds with one stone. All units will now last 1.7 times longer without needing to go to an Inn. This makes the demand on Inns smaller, making bases smaller, the need for large number of units smaller, it reduces the punishment of starvation slightly. This shoots down several birds with one stone. I've updated nicowars tuning to better match the decreased demand on Inns. This will probably throw a few senior gamers off their game due for a short bit, but is better in the long run -- Extra cheese comes at a cost. Bradley Arsenault.
