    The A.I. certainly does not seem to understand the rationing trait. I've seen A.I. stacks starve because they refused to move two tiles to friendly territory. However, I do like this idea. I rather doubt the A.I. would understand that movement is slower in enemy territory, but since the A.I. generally is not interested in campaigns beyond its direct border provinces I don't think this would be a problem.

    Default Re: Movement allowance

    Alas, again, we're constrained within the limits set by general relativity: c, the speed of captains, is a constant - we can adjust the generals' move speeds only relative to the captains. Most often our generals are tachyons, but when their speed drops below c, the player/AI can just ditch the general to have the movement allowance of the army boosted again. Though, seeing that the AI mostly uses captain-led stacks in any case, it wouldn't hugely deteriorate AI behaviour, as long as c is defined to be within reasonable limits. (I think we can alter c in some configurations file, but it's still a constant unaffected by traits)

    It could still work, though.

    Have you another for naval movement, as well?
    Nope.
