As crystal! As it turns out, I did not know that. I will adjust tactics accordingly. Thank you sir.You have to get up to "Charge Speed" before you'll gain the charge bonus, which is where the "3-second rule" comes in on level ground - if your unit doesn't have approx. 3 seconds in which to accelerate, it won't gain the bonus.
On steep enough hills/mountains, and/or with tired enough troops, they won't get up to sufficient speed - and you won't see any charge benefit. With shallower hills, and with fresh troops, they'll get the extra attack. Under poorer circumstances, they won't. Clear?!?
"Its just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. Then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?"
