The new update

"Lack of food: extend cropland first!"

Bear with me as it is early in the morning and the coffee is still kicking in. I have just started an account on T6 and get the above with alarmingly regularity. Does that mean before I build or attempt to build a hammer I will have to max everything to the level I require (buildings/resource) for as soon as a large training of troops takes place and go into negative crop (if that is possible) I will simply get "Lack of food: extend cropland first!" every time I would want to level up a resource field, (as I have always done per previous servers? )

You did not understood properly - the crop consumption from troops has nothing to do with the building structures... this means you can have let's say -1000 crop and still be able to build structures with no problem, or yor could have +20 crop and yet be unable to build(because res from hero do not count when building structures also no other bonuses, only fields matter).

That makes sense - thank you [Theutates Thunder]
