Imperious Leader, in the latest AARHE file
*you are not allowed to not pay
*if you can’t pay its carried forward
*and nothing happens if you can’t pay
Pay 1 IPC for every unit occupying a desert terrain or transport. Pay 1 IPC for every land unit offloaded in an amphibious assault or airborne drop during your last turn. If you don’t have enough income to pay the balance will be carried to next turn.
need any adjustments?
maybe units not paid should not move?
but that makes them stay in the desert and the costs goes up and then suddenly you pay a big bill
sort of weird.
++++ if you didn’t allocate resources for tasks that require upkeep you MUST pay for it in any event on your following turn.
maybe if you don’t pay they can’t move, balance not carried forward
second tiem around they die (surrender/disband/etc)
++++ no no too complicated… keep it simple.
again to avoid weirdness
maybe airborne drop costs should be paid in real time.
Yes these however are not upkeep. Id rather remove the moniker “upkeep” and replace with “Logistical Cost”
