1) I assumed that would just have to be a risk involved with attaching harvesters to a army. More convenient, but also somewhat riskier.

2) Solved easily enough by only being able to attach one type of harvester to the army at a time.

lol jcx...true, but if you are going to hunt npc's just for the animal parts, this is a brilliant idea....
I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.

It is a decent idea, but some problems I see are

1. Players losing harvesters because they do not scout the enemy/ players forgetting they have harvesters in their army and sending it to a fight

2. Kills near other player cities will cause problems, especially with the widely accepted 5 sq harvest rule

But apart from these I think your idea is very nice!

I am greatly in favour of this suggestion. I cant sometimes login again to check if my army has hit and then send cotters/skinners to collect the valuable hides etc on the spot. I am sure there are few other players who face similar problem because of real life getting in the way, by allowing the option of attaching the skinners and cotters, It will make it much easier for us to get full benefit of the resources dropped on the spot.  Smile
