My guess is yes - ie. the castles stores food and when it runs low then i'll guess that morale of the defenders will begin to get low too.

I'm not sure whether or not the morale of the attackers will be affected.

When a castel is fool of food, morale of those who are in shod disgreece slowly than morele of siegers(those outside the walls).

And after long siege siegers have far lower food and their morale comes down. I saw they can plunder area around, but when there is no more food for them, they should starv of it and their morale should be very low. That's what I thing.

Sorry for my terrific english :blush:

Yes, that it how it shall be.

Not because enemy runs out of food but the attacker needs also enough food....if they run out of food their morale can drop too...
