we have decided that the rule for erasing all baggage means all baggage, no matter who has it. Whether stockpiled in a city or in the wagons behind a banner in march. Seems like there is almost no point in stockpiling baggage in this game though. With only 6 turns a season I would take all that I would need with my banners.
You buy more baggage during the spring with new troops etc. I purchased plenty of baggage in my first turn and it looks like my banner will end the campaign season with all of it so I was hoping to stockpile it into a city to keep for next season.
We have decided, however, to try and consolidate rulebooks. Their seems to be 3 total books, the original by priestley and stillman, the updated original and then another that was written by a Helge Seetzen with the permission of Rick. The re-written one seems to leave out a ton of stuff by acting as an addition but does a poor job of telling the reader, "use this instead of the information on page XX." So with no back and forth we get confused easily.
