Re: Does infantry/cavalry description mean anything?
Far as I know unit movement speed is governed by the skeleton it uses and the relationship between its terrain bonuses and what it's traversing on.
The descriptors "light infantry", "heavy infantry", "heavy cavalry" and so on are AFAIK mainly for the benefit of the AI and the formation files.

Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

Hmm, it would be great to know this, modding guru's please chime in!

Re: Does infantry/cavalry description mean anything?
If you want to make an unit move faster, swap its skeleton to a faster one - say, fs_slow_swordsman to fs_swordsman for Chosen Swordsmen - in descr_model_battle. If you want to make it tire slower, add the hardy or very_hardy "stamina" trait in export_descr_unit.
The unit-type descriptors are just recognition flags.

The walking/running/charging speed are indeed dictated by the animations.
