Wheeled Vehicles & the effects

Thu Mar 06, 2008 4:43 am

I was reading a post on modding and the effects of different terrain and I realized that no one had ever mentioned this particular question.

Because no one HAS mentioned it I would guess that there is no difference but I will ask it anyway.

Does it matter how many wheeled vehicles are in a stack (Art, Supply Wagons, ect)?

What I am trying to say is if 1 Art slows you down a certain amount will 1 art AND 1 supply slow you down more OR is it that the penalty is a one time hit no matter how many artillery and Supply sources you have?

I'm fairly sure that it checks the speed of the slowest unit in the stack, and that the number of units that are equally slowest doesn't matter.

There are some threads on this. I ll resume:

1.- Units inside a division (and brigade) march faster than outside... seems this is WAD, as the quick units lend men & horses to the slowest.

2.- Wheeled units make all the stack slower, according to its % speed ratio

3.- Wagons can not merge with a division, so they always slow the stack

4.- Siege artillery slows some more, but (now) it can be merged in divisions. Some discusion is being done regarding if this should be allowed. I personally try to leave it out of the divisions in defense.
