What are the effects of Fatigue

[EleventhTower]

It seems fatigue is not modable, and I when I searched across the site forums, I couldn't find out the effects (other than speculation).

Does anyone know the true effects of Fatigue?

Does it slow down attack rate?
Does it lower attack or defense?
Does it lower moral?
etc.

If the answer to any of these is "yes", do you know to what extent or values they are effected?

Basically, I believe it was common to keep forces in reserve in battles. But when playing the game, other then trying to be accurate, what are the benefits. It seems like I get better results if I try to engage my forces all at once and overpower/flank the enemy.

Im not sure of exact details but it must lower morale atleast
if you fight a tough force reserves are good esp shock troops



I love to wear down the enemy by making them chase horearchers ect

I'm very interested in the answer to this question as well.

From my experience, it just seems that when my spearmen are "exhausted," they just move sluggishly. I didn't notice much difference in the actual combat.

Maybe it's to make the player less confident in their abilities =\

actually, ive noticed that exhausted units are much more easier to kill then fresh units of the same type. do a custom battle to test it if u want.

when troop is tired exhausted etc, i believe defense skill attack and movement rate decrease. maybe moral too. not positive though

good question, I would love to know too.

Moral, Movement speed, attack and defense are decreased.

Moral is extremely low, they become shaken the second there exhausted. and will route soon after that

They run slow as , makes sense though

They attack worse, makes sense

Defense, same as above.

Thanks for the feedback. Although I would like to have some "real" numbers, I guess I'll just have to stick with the assumptions mentioned.

It's not exactly critical to my game play, but I do find it interesting to figure out how calculation's are made to implement an AI.
