One Billion served

: If growth is your main goal in an already large empire:
: suggestion1: use slaves : no food upkeep
: suggestion2: assign all engineers and some cheap conscript units to one city; only one will die (a cheap conscript) costing 15 food (if build in city with granary on easy) and a few production. A lot less of the hudreds of food upkeep you have to pay otherwise

What a devious plan! I didn't realize that only one unit is lost per turn for famine. Does that same unit count as the loss for insufficient production support, or is a militia lost also?
You also have to add one conscript to the city to restore its population, right? That would be a cost of 30 food.
