Party speed too slow...

[Akhenatom]

I noticed that from some update's here, the speed of my party was too slow, from 3.3 to 1.3, and in forests it drops to 1.0!!!
It was too slow... :(

There's a lot of factors that determine speed. You can hover over your movement speed to see if there are any factors affecting it that are in your control.

you can only see your movement-speed-tooltip, if you smash the arrow right of the screen of the worldmap. it have all infos you need. (i assume you have to much animals/horses)

Too many people? Not enough horses? Overencumbered? Is it also snowing? Ted the Viking setting the carriages on fire again?

Lots of factors.

The player is too slow i got all my companions of horses and got 60 donkeys and 60 stumper horses and still have chance looters for days. my Army size 120 60 of them are horse archers.

It's been a long time since I don't play but, take care of the herd animals, and I think donkeys are not horses for party speed purposes, they increase load capacity but slow the party.

With a party of 120.... you should be able to have 240 animals (horses, donkeys, cows, pigs, sheeps, camels) before you get a hoarde penality kicking in... Any party member/unit on a horse/camel is included. To put it simple, every party member can handle 2 animals, including the one they ride).

If you have prisoners and party is overburden by cargo, that would slow you down too.

Thanks guys for the help. I really had a lot of horses, more than 400 horses on a normal mount that I really didn't need...
I gained 2.0+ speed...^^

Herd modifier can sneak up on you with the amount of battle loot you get. Gotta make the rounds selling them off!
