    Default How does healed troops work?

    I never got a manual with my gold game, one thing I have never understood is how casualties are healed after the battle...

    What effects the amount of troops healed?

    Thanks!

    If you're referring to replenishing troop numbers, you send them to an appropriate settlement, then go to the Retrain option in the Recruitment tab. You can only retrain certain troop types in certain settlements, e.g. Militia in cities and Knights in Castles exclusively.

    I suspect its due to traits of the general..chirugeon or surgeon or something which increases the proportion of troops healed after a battle.
    Maybe thats what the OP is referring to.

    Right after the battle you get the battle results. Here you can find seperate units with their rate of casualties, imprisonment but also the number of men healed. Is this what MeMongo is reffering to? Although I too dont know on what terms this is being calculated....

    Sometimes I've experienced that some units who took alot of casualties simply get merged togheter (providing they're exactly the same type of units with the exact same level of upgrades adn experience).

    However I also have the Gold Edition, and I did found a manual on the CD as a PDF.

    guys he is not talking about retraining
    oh well I guess it's random how many casualties heal after the battle; so I'm not sure how this works, sometimes when I play a siege defense and I've got an almost depleted unit (lets say that unit goes from 70 men to 5-6) I have many healed casulaties (sometimes I saw like 40 men healed !), but this isn't always happening ....
    and yes traits like surgeon help like Fireright said
    Înfrânt nu eşti atunci când sângeri,
    nici ochii când în lacrimi ţi-s.
    Adevăratele înfrângeri,
    sunt renunţările la vis.

    a big chunk of your soldiers will heal from projectile inflicted wounds.
    i'm curious to find out which other weapon inflicted wounds heal also, it's worth finding out in the custom battles.

    Its a mix of traits , armor and how they were wounded.

    Bow wounds tend to heal quite a bit if your men are well armored because an arrow dosnt have much penetrating power.
    While crossbows heal much less because a bolt will rip through your armor.
    Gun wounds dont heal much again for the same reason.

    While in melee units hit by cavalry tend to die most of the time because of the impact of the charge but in a prolonged fight the healed rate increases if your men are armored because a sword dosnt have much penetrating power against armor which is also why swordsmen kill unarmored men much easier then armored.
    While a unit wounded by an axe is almost certainly going to die because an axe is great for use against armored enemies because you can just take there arm's or legs off.

    And so on with other weapons also a unit hit from behind tends to have far fewer men heal.
    I am the shadow, and the smoke in your eyes I am the ghost, that hides in the night.

    We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
    we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
    we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
    we shall fight on the beaches,
    we shall fight on the landing grounds,
    we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
    we shall fight in the hills;
    we shall never surrender.

    " The dark is generous.
    Its first gift is concealment: our true faces lie in the dark beneath our skins, our true hearts remain shadowed deeper still. But the greatest concealment lies not in protecting our secret truths, but in hiding from the truths of others.
    The dark protects us from what we dare not know.
    Its second gift is comforting illusion: the ease of gentle dreams in night’s embrace, the beauty that imagination brings to what would repel in the day’s harsh light. But the greatest of its comforts is the illusion that dark is temporary: that every night brings a new day. Because it’s the day that is temporary.
    Day is the illusion.
    Its third gift is the light itself: as days are defined by the nights that divide them, as stars are defined by the infinite black through which they wheel, the dark embraces the light, and brings it forth from the center of its own self.
    With each victory of the light, it is the dark that wins.


    The dark is generous, and it is patient.
    It is the dark that seeds cruelty into justice, that drips contempt into compassion, that poisons love with grains of doubt.
    The dark can be patient, because the slightest drop of rain will cause those seeds to sprout.
    The rain will come, and the seeds will sprout, for the dark is the soil in which they grow, and it is the clouds above them, and it waits behind the star that gives them light.
    The dark’s patience is infinite.
    Eventually, even stars burn out.


    The dark is generous, and it is patient, and it always wins.
    It always wins because it is everywhere.
    It is in the wood that burns in your hearth, and in the kettle on the fire; it is under your chair and under your table and under the sheets on your bed. Walk in the midday sun, and the dark is with you, attached to the soles of your feet.
    The brightest light casts the darkest shadow.


    The dark is generous and it is patient and it always wins – but in the heart of its strength lies its weakness: one lone candle is enough to hold it back.
    Love is more than a candle.
    Love can ignite the stars."



    Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end.

    You began the war.

    I am going to end it!
