An express catapult?

[ybrevo]

Something strange happened today ...

The situation is this: I have just conquered the city of Cordoba from Isabella (yes, her again), and she is trying to fight back of course. So I see an impressive stack of 1 Conquistador, 1 Catapult and 1 War Elephant against my 12 riflemen holding the city (plus a few other guys resting after the siege).

The mystery is: In only one turn, her stack manages to move 3 tiles. Yes, it was on Spanish roads, but still - how could that be possible?

Does Isabella have a rocket in her pocket, or is there a bug in my Vanilla version?

If anyone of you have experienced the same, I would appreciate some feedback.

Road movement after Engineering is 3 tiles.

I think he was agreeing with you.

Okay, whatever.

Though, I was kind of excited about the prospect of strapping thrusters on my catapults and having all the troops climb on board.

It would've read better as:

After Engineering, roads provide

+1

movement.

Well if you're going to get technical it's
After Engineering, moving from one road tile to another road tile within your or open borders, costs 1/3 movement point.

... unless it is in unowned territory, in which case moving from road to road STILL costs 1/3 MP.

Thanks for the information everyone.

You are not only very helpful, you are also funny to read
