Good ideas! Crime definitely needs a fix because losing thousands of armed soldiers to thieves makes no sense

Lower field upkeep... or just remove it. Only have upkeep on garrisons.

Keep crime

Increase PP production by 5x.

Decrease cost of gear by 50%.

Base amount of troops should be 500.

1 tick gives 3 troops instead of 2 ticks giving one.

ACTION! ACTION! ACTION!

Crime is pretty awesome actually.  It allows smaller factions to take fiefs from poorly managed larger factions.  I understand that it annoys you, but it's not a bad mechanic.  Honestly, the best change we can make is to lower roster sizes to better accommodate the shrinking mercenary pools, this will give smaller clans a chance.

OOOOOR....
It makes larger factions easily control smaller ones cus they can zerg swarm their surroundings and stop the trade for a few days making the small faction give up their fief so the big faction doestn need to even lose one soldier... Crime is a mechanic that allows big to become bigger much faster.

In theory that was possible in the beginning, but would have required the sieging faction to nolife 24/7 on the computer for weeks to stop any trader going in. Now that gold is no longer an issue for anyone, they can just buy half of the S&D and sell it at -50% and lose close to no gold.

Or just like 20395205035 players like grey my old friends and druz gays had. Not so hard to zerg someone when u have more players than u can have bots on dtv with all waves combined together.

Well yeah I did that ages ago, 500k could destroy like 25mil worth of S/D, but the DRZ just laughed at me like I was a little flee bighting their leg

Simply change: add gold reward during strategus battles too. Currently you get only experience but 0 gold (no one cares about strategus silver). In a big strategus battle players get ~1M exp, so this could be like 50 000 gold (1000 xp = 50 gold). This might help to get more players in roster also.
