Army Professionalism Glitch?
I don't have the Cradle of Civ DLC, yet Prussia is killing me with their army professionalism and military drill morale boost and I have no idea how they got it.

I kid you not my 10 stack defeated an army of 100k and sent them packing. Granted I had a mountain terrain bonus. But only Prussia can do that. Especially if they took the right idea groups to really max out their bonuses. It's not professionalism that's killing you. It's just Prussia
Why does it show +20 for army professionalism and +15 for army drills then? Is it just saying the wrong thing or something?

First is the name of their 3rd or 4th national idea, second one I guess is the name of the second idea in defensive idea group.

Do you have a screenshot?

Assuming they have +20 Army Professionalism, this would give every Prussian army following bonuses:
+2% Shock damage dealt
+2% Fire damage dealt
+4% Siege ability

+15 Drill would also give the Unit (not whole Army):
+1.5% Shock damage
+1.5% Fire damage
−1.5% Fire damage received
−1.5% Shock damage received

But as Penguin already said, screenshot would be nice.

Yes indeed, Pozz is right. Army Professionalism is prussias third national idea which gives +20% morale of armies and Military Drill is the second idea of the Defensive idea group which gives +15% morale of armies.

Yeah I just loaded a game and checked. Pozz is correct. What you are seeing are the names to the bonuses to morale he's getting from his national ideas and defensive ideas.

And screenshots so you know. He's not magically getting professionalism and drill since you don't have the dlc that allows for that, it's just his idea bonuses

Ok, I wish they would tweak the name a little to have made it less confusing
