Question about speed.

[Nordlund]

Hello gentel people of the forum.

I wonder how the moment speed system works in this game, in HOI 3 the slowest unit was the cap. Is it the same this time around?

Yes, of course. If you add heavy tanks to an light tank division it will drasticly slow down of course. If your light tanks travel at 16km/h and your heavies at 8km/h the division will travel at 8km/h.

It should be noted tho, that support companies automaticly adjust to the speed of the division. So support artillery will match the speed of an division of light tanks just as it does with infantry for example. They dont slow down the divison.

one more question about speed, does support brigades/units like arty and radio have a cap or more like a slowing down effect?

Does attaching a support engineering brigade to a panzer division skyrocket the softness this time around?

support brigades automaticly match the attributes of the division. Support artillery in an tank division matches its speed and will be considered towed artillery, while support artillery in an paratrooper division will match its attribute and can be paradropped aswell, for example.

I doubt it will skyrocket it, but it surely will add to it. Overall we are not talking about an massive amount of men and an motorized/mechanized infantry division will increase softness alot more.

Much pleased to hear this
