I'm playing with some mods that heavily restrict recruitment, so my army is almost entirely bandits and mercenaries. On land, Monchug's army would destroy mine, but this isn't a land battle and he gifted me several amazing prizes. The only way this could've been better is if Monchug died instead of his companion. submitted by /u/Glorf_Warlock [link] [comments]
They all seem to have a party speed of 6. How am I supposed to catch them?
In one campaign my party has a mix of infantry and cavalry, no where near to being overencumbered, and sufficient speed boosting horses in inventory to get the full footmen on horseback speed bonus. My maximum party speed is mid 5s from memory.
In another campaign, my party is full infantry, otherwise same as above. My maximum party speed is 5.3.
How am I ever meant to catch caravans with anything but a pure cavalry party? I can't set an ambush and lie in waiting on a bridge or in a forest until they pass by. I can't chase them down either.
There's no party speed bonus for being a small party (nor a penalty for being a large party)?
Also caravans should be mostly pack animals and should have traders/civilians in their party. Why do pack animals not slow down party speed? They probably should.
Was the decision made to give them such high speed because AI parties kept decimating caravans (and thereby the economy) in wars if the speed was lower?
