Embarked supply convoys
Do adjacent naval units get the extra healing/move.

I thought about it looking at the naval mele promotion that gives extra attack if in a formation and wondering what I could attach to them.

Thank you.

What convoys give extra healing/move?

Do you mean the Admiral units, those give movement, but probably only to naval units corresponding to the correct era. (At least that is how the Generals work for land units, I don't get admirals often, so I'm not positive on that point)

There is possibly a great person who gives extra healing.

Or are you talking about building Fleets/Armadas?

Fleets and armadas are created by combining two or three units together into a fleet or an armada. To do this you have to have reserached the proper Civic (or maybe Tech, but I think Civic), then you move the units next to each other and a new button will show up on the units Placard for creating the fleet or armada) Note, there will be only *ONE* unit afterwards, but it will be stronger than a normal single unit.

As far as I know, Fleets and Armadas do not give extra movement or healing.

I do mean that one.... I have built them but never tried to use them embarked.... If nobody knows I might have to try myself

I doubt it due to it being an embarked unit.
And yet it absolutely OUGHT to considering the total lack of support ships (only being present in a promotion of all things).
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

I just loaded a saved game and tried it. Ironclad has 6 movement atm. Ironclad starting from same tile as embarked supply convoy has 6 movement. Ironclad linked to supply convoy has 6 movement.

Thank you for checking.... I wasn´t expecting it to work, but I agree, it is wierd that ground troops get support units but sea ones don´t... But I get the feeling Sea fighting wasn´t developed with the same ammount of love.
