Did you know that your armies can do this:

[Moonsinger]

Attack mutiple time in the same turn. I'm so surprise to realize that my cavalry army can attack twice in the same turn.

With patch 1.29f, I also notice that my army can heal alot faster too.

[alva]

yep, blitz capability

no need to share everything you discover though

[Sean]

Yes I did know. And isn't three times, if you start the attacks next to an enemy?

[dunk]

This stuff was in the patch readme.

Yes, they fixed the healing so that each unit inside the army heals 1 HP per turn (2 HP inside a city).

Before, armies healed only 1 HP per turn total (2 HP inside a city).

Cool! Thanks for the info! I didn't know that since I didn't read the readme file.

I had noticed before that an army in a city with barracks would take more than one turn to heal. Have they fixed that, too?

Do regular units heal twice as fast in cities without barracks, or only units in armies?

I usually read the changes as I wait for the file to download, but I don't remember reading about those changes, so maybe I didn't do it last time.

I would assume so since the indiviual units inside the army heal at the normal rate now.

That's a big bonus!

The shortcut is "J". It will move all non-fortified units of the same kind from one tile to another at once much like the GoTo command. No way to move different units at once, though.

[Ethelred]

All units of the same type in a stack can be moved with the SHIFT-J hotkey. Fortified units will not move so you can SHIFT-J units in cities without taking the units that were fortified to protect the city.

SHIFT-J works with workers as well as military units. Very usefull for moving a stack to repair captured grasslands the the AI had irrigated so they could have massive worthless cities with major pollution problems.

Cool Thx Guys

[vondrack]

Interesting, I have just tried it and "J" works for me, while "Shift-J" does not (not a CapsLock issue... )...?
I do admit that most people mention "Shift-J", not just "J"... maybe some weird issue with my custom made keyboard driver?

[Ethelred]

More likely I just got it wrong. I just hit the keys and if it doesn't work one way I do it the other. My fingers remember what to do anyway.

J sounds right. I most likely was stuck on SHIFT from the SHIFT-A command for workers.
