IF it is a bug, I want to add one other thing to the discussion Andrew,
It seems this bug astonishes you,
but then you had to complain
when Khamath had his "Joyride" through our region.
The rule states something about
#Stacks with large numbers of figures relative to the number of nobles
#travel slower. A movement penalty of:
# delay = number of figures / (number of nobles * 10)
#is imposed for stack movement. A figure is either a man or something that
#fights, but does not include beasts without combat attack or defense
values.
I see 7 elite archers and 11 centaurs: total 18 men and 1 noble.
So it had to be 5 days of movement.
I think you didn't complain, so you have no reason to do now.
