So I wanna ask, is there is a way to replenish it?
I have already depleted the store at Martinique (I have 2 first class ships) and am greatly concerned about being cut off in the middle of the game.
Has anyone noticed tis problem?
Any solutions?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Hi all. Im playing with out cheats , and first (who knows how many real life days) i just gathered gold 4 crew payment and ofc food 4 the armada i wanted 2 get in the future... after i farmed first 10 milion gold i tryed all kinds of combinations of ships 4 my armada.
Altho i found out that sometimes i can return the crew on the 31.day of the month and take them back the day after with out payment.( but in most cases u loose most of ur crews skill) so... when u got 5 ships with each 600-1000 salors on board i rather pay 500 000 a month 4 all crew that 2 bother my self with ship switchin and realesing 2-3 thousand man and then taking them on board again. so i figured money ain't the problem when i saw how much food and rum they consume <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />. crazy numbers .... my armada drings about 1000 barrels of rum par day. But back 2 food problem... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> i traveled all across the map in search of cities where i did not buy all food from reascently and i figure that my armada use more food 2 get there than i usualy find at stores. sometimes u dont even find food on other side of the map so u gota fire some crew. there u find the most anoying problem. i dont want 2 fire my 2500 sea dogs sailors cannoneers and fighters that took me ages 2 train.
Overall the only part when u realy gona need an armada is when u want 2 do some major upgrades at bermuda (those mahagony and ebony amounts are insane i hope 5 mow's will do, till then ill be satisfied with 1 of best mow's i had with upgraded speed and crew capsity only ( still so slow i watch most of enemys ships run in 80% of cases
)
ps. still did not do more than few quests (stuck with blue bird quest) so i did not find the dutchman or sea dog that everybody is talking about (big ship with speed)

It does seem kind of far fetched that with 4 nations' navies in the caribbean there isn't even enough food around for the player's 4 or 5 ship "fleet." Food quantities need to be tweaked.
