Different speeds in different campaigns?

**crazyj** · August 30, 2007, 10:18 AM

Just curious if this is just me, or something everybody notices.

It seems to me that there are different movement speeds for different campaigns.

At least, in the Americas the Mesoamerican infantry seem to freaking fly over the ground on their little moccasins, while in the Brittania campaign the infantry seem much slower and more plodding.

Anybody else notice this?

Lusted said that Native American infantry are supposed to run faster than Europeans ones. He also said you can mod the speed at which certain units run now.

Seriously? Halberdiers will now be able to keep up with pikemen? That's great! (if it's true...)

I figured as much. My first thought was "jesus those aztecs launched their sally out of the town fast, wtf?" Then I thought, aha of course! They SHOULD be faster on their feet...

Just loving it, the tweaks to each campaign are awesome and well-suited.

Yes you can, there is a move speed setting you can apply to units in the unit file, as well as a recruitment priority setting.

Can you tell me where this move speed setting is located Lusted? Unlike the recruit priority setting, I couldn't see it in the unit file.

It's only specified for some units in the Americas campaign. But you can use it for any unit.

Right you are. Cheers.

Time to fix those western halberds and pikes!

Presumably though, giving them a speed mod will also make them rather uber fast out of spearwall or phalanx mode....
