Troops can move a greater distance in a shorter period of time without gaining any net fatigue if you run them all the way to the destination and then rest them, particularly if you lie them down to rest, then they rest twice as fast. It's absurd, but it's how it works.

I tried cutting down stamina levels in the unit stats but this mechanic stays the same. Troops with lower calisthenics run just as fast and recover fatigue just as fast, the only difference is they gain fatigue a little faster.

I imagine we'll all be running across the field once we figure out how to use this. I apologize to my teammates who I've always told to stop running because I thought it worked the opposite way.

The only caveat being to make sure you have time to rest them before engaging the enemy.

Which is a luxury you may well not enjoy - after all, why else would you be running if it weren't an urgent matter?

Don't worry Garnier, it's just the grumpy old man starting to come out in you. "Stop running you damn kids! And get off my lawn!"

There are lots of good tutors in this subject on here, and they are always willing to give out doses of advice such as this.

Enjoy it while you can. NSD is on the case! :ohmy:

And they may not like the solution.

As compared to TC2M This game is much better with the fatigue. In TC2M the troops tired too fast when marching. If you tweak something please don't change the current game flow. Thanks.

I wouldn't want them to get tired marching, but they should tire much faster from running. This can easily be fixed once modding's allowed.

"particularly if you lie them down to rest, then they rest twice as fast."

Really? Good to know, as I double-quick quite often.

Yeah I never had thought of it before but it's true. I always thought lying down was only to avoid artillery fire.

This is something I tested when I was first brought on the team by Norb.

On open terrain troops would not fatigue as easily or quickly as they would in forested terrain or fields with crops.

It would also take some time, and distance, for troops marching on roads to fatigue; even with a full kit. Remember, many of these soldiers were hearty men - lots of farmers, laborers etc.. - men that were use to spending long hours on their feet.
