Hello all. I thought I would post some questions I have that are pretty noobish. I’ll copy paste the best answer under the question so that any newcomers who have the same question have the benefit of an easy to read FAQ. If you think you have a better, or more accurate response to a question already answered, please post.
First question: how does fatigue affect fighting ability? More specifically, which stats does it affect?
Answer (from ASM): "No one really knows. However it reduces, attack, defense, and morale."
(from Ludens) : "As far as I am aware, the developers have never revealed the combat penalties of fatigue. From my own experience, I am pretty sure works the same way as in M1:TW. Low levels of fatigue have no effect, but after a certain level you get increasing penalties for attack and (later on) defence. At high levels there is also a morale penalty."
Second question : with light javelin cavalry, is it worthwhile to throw jav from flanks of heavy infantry given that they usually suffer a lot of losses when opponent detects their approach (arrows, slings etc)?
Third question : Apart from certain units (elephants, chariots, catas and infantry who like it au naturel etc), being flanked and being hit with cav charges, what else brings down morale/causes units to rout?
