speaking of slow FL/FH, its not only for the AS, at least when i was playing as the romani. my FL/FH had very few movement points, even in the spring, while the other FM's had full...... but they never had none.... except maybe in the winter.
also, does the summer have a negative effect for movement points? it seems as if there are less then than in the spring. is it because it was so hot, armies didnt want to fight?
