Ok, perhaps I am missing something but if someone could shed some light on this I would greatly appreciate it.
According to the Campaign book the longer the trade route the harder it is to maintain. "Longer trade routes are harder to maintain than short
ones. Ultimate Campaign, pg 232"
Makes sense... until you look at the formula for figuring out the DC
"Divide the Trade Route Length by 10 to get the Route Modifier (RM). Subtract the TRL from your kingdom’s Size to get the Length Modifier (LM), with a minimum LM of 0. Ultimate Campaign, pg 232"
Why does the formula make the trade route easier the further away it is?
Or am I just overly tired today?
