Raising an Army

The rules for Mass Combat have very little information on what needs to be done to ACTUALLY recruit an army. For example the only limit to army size is how much consumption you are willing to take on... which is silly and makes no sense. Because of this I have been working on a new system to help our Heroes build and recruit their armies!
Recruiting an army will have the following rules (all of theses are in addition to any found in the Mass Combat section of D20PFSRD.COM). Furthermore we will also be using a number of the "Optional Rules" given in the Mass Combat section aswell (including Reserve Armies, Splitting Armies and a few more):

Recruiting an Army
Any Leader within the Kingdom may raise an army, but generally there will be one main fighting force controlled by the Kingdoms Ruler and General as a team. Being the Leaders of a Kingdom is enough of a reputation to begin building an army in the name of your Kingdom.
The total number of soldiers a Kingdom may have active in it's military is equal to 1/20th it's total population. If a Kingdom has a special benefit, such as being a Warrior Nation, this limit increases to 1/15th its total population.

The level of soldiers that may be trained can be enhanced by multiple means within the campaign, the level of soldiers a Kingdom can recruit always starts at Warrior Lvl 1 ( Being a Warrior Nation allows Latveria to train Soldiers of 1 Level Higher than normal).
*Note that the Level and class of Soldiers you can recruit while be upgraded throughout the Campaign and will need to be kept track of seperately

To recruit an army a Kingdom must first have at least one building capable of training soldiers, the time it takes to train each Army is equal to 1 week/ 100 soldiers in that Army. Those buildings are as follows:
Barracks: Can train Armies of Large or smaller size.
Garrison: Can Train Armies of Huge or smaller size.
*Note that each Army must be assigned a commander while in training, and that no Commander can be assigned to more than one Army at a time. This means you will likely have to have multiple commanders on the Kingdoms payroll.
* Note that to make Larger Armies you will need to combine smaller ones using the Combining Armies Option Rue in the Mass Combat section of D20PFSRD.COM

Once trained you pay an Armies Consumption cost as normal. Note that the Consumption of an Army is measured in WEEKS not Months and must be paid 4 times/Kingdom building turn. To lower consumption cost of an Army you may place that Army in RESERVE using the Reserve Armies Optional Rules in the Mass Combat Section of D20PFSRD.COM.
*Note that in order to place an Army in reserve you will need to have the appropriate houseing, which is detailed in the Reserve Armies section as well.



I hope I covered everything that needed to be covered, please let me know if you have any questions!
