    It works, and with a 25% bonus general it's obvious enough just from the movement area. Screenshots under the spoiler tag:

    Thanks for the tests and screens, excellent work.
    The Ferrari comment was way off base, my logic was sound. After another test I found my problem:

    I started new game as Russia, Mikhail is Energetic (+15% move). Using my old test i moved one of the archers out of his stack as far as possible. Then I moved Mik + another archer, but they could move no further than the lone archer so I figured forced march didn't work.
    Using a new test: Move Mik plus one of his archers out of a stack as far as possible. End Turn. Move another archer from the original stack, he cannot catch up to the general+archer.

    Conclusion: All the units in a generals stack at the start of a turn get the bonus, even if the general does not move with them. My old test assumed this was false and was therefore flawed, not because I thought a foot unit could march as far as my general.
