Here's a test case: a scout in the desert supplied with food, nothing else. If you watch the replay, I recommend 200x speed; takes a little while for the scout to eat all the fish in the pond.

You'll notice three flags off by themselves in the SW corner of player's territory:

1) I placed the first flag when the pond was fished out; HQ is then well-stocked and the tavern keeps the scout going.

2) I noticed the scout take a very small slice of new area quite a ways along and placed the second flag.

3) The third flag comes when all food is eaten and the scout stays home; this also terminates the replay.

The replay may not be terribly informative, since replays begin with all territory visible. But I also include in the tarball a screenshot of the minimap by game end. You will see that the scout has explored less than half of a rough circle around HQ.
