There are so many territories, that they thought getting 1 men per 3 territories was unfair. So you get 1 men per 3 territories up to a certain point, after that it takes 4 and 5 territories to get additional men.

It took a pretty complicated bonus structure to make that work, which slows the entire game down and renders BOB almost useless. Not worth it in my opinion.

Hence the adjustment. You have 33 terits, you'd normally get 11 armies. They don't want that, they want you to get 11 armies at 34 terits, so they take one away from you when you have 33.

And then the extra man has to be added back in when you have 34 territories, which is what caused the complicated coding.

Indeed - hopefully Lack will implement a way of coding these variations without this complex code - if this happens then Conquerman will run a LOT quicker...
