A Very Admirable Admiral

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

Are biremes faster? I thought they were all the same.

I think that you are correct there Quirinus - ships are usually of equal speed.

Also, I think units of different movespeeds slow down to that of the slowest unit in a stack. For example, a cavalry column still won't move fast if it has a couple of infantry units/onagers tagging along.

Yes, that is the case, although Onagers and similar seige weapons slow the stack down to a much greater extent than infantry does to a cavalry stack. Due to this I always either separate my main stack from the siege weapons (with an escort of course) or I try to avoid using them under in cases where rapid assault moves are needed. Sometimes though generals have extra movement points which negate this problem by a fair amount.

I guess that answers Chuckle's question.

Has anyone else has seen a better captain sail the Mediterranean?
