Hi

I'm wondering for quite some time now which brigades are adapted for mountain divisions.

I usually give them artillery but I don't know it it makes tem lose their bonus...
I view these divisions as my elite infantry and I like them to have some additional punch.

What do you guy usually do ?

I agree, I also make them my elite divisions. I've modded them to have 2 attachments and usually give them engineers and artillery. The Arty does slow them down but doesn't affect their other bonuses. I've also slightly improved their attack, defensive, and movement bonuses in mountains and hills. I think they're underpowered in vanilla and I'm also surprised the game doesn't offer specialized mtn artillary such as pack howitzers that doesn't affect the unit's movement.

I think the pack howitzers are already part of the division as a smaller unit. I dont think brigade sized formation of pack howitzers was ever a thing historically.

Ok, thanks for the answer !
But does giving them motorized brigades like medium/light tanks or armored cars reduce their speed on rugh terrain ? (because on the economy tab when I add one of these brigades I have no info about speed on the rought terrain provinces...)
