Since so many are speaking of how lumping armies together is the best
stratagy, and it is more or less, then there needs to be a mechanic to
seperate them.
 
My suggestion is that armis need to be fed by the region they occupy, even
enemy territory. That grain be a paraphenalia. That if they go more than 2
days without food men start getting wounded. that moral drops as soon as
grain is unavailable. That TLs have to use up hours "forageing." That
forageing takes a handful of grain bushels from the region and puts it into
paraphenalia. That when food becomes scarce that foraging becomes a problem.
That enemy TLs grain can be stolen. That graineries can be raided or
destroyed. That grain production is boosted to compensate for all this
waist.
 
If all these things existed, than armies would have to spread out more, and
raiding parties would be needed press further into  the enemies land to
gather grain and bring it back to the army.
