Oh right, yeah I heard about that. Haven't tried it yet since we've been reinforcing each other with our own stacks, but it sounds like a great feature

Are there any mods that make the campaign map movement UI less of a micromanagement execution nightmare? A few UI changes would make playing so much more enjoyable and reduce the amount of stupid execution mistakes that cost precious turns. Like letting you disable marching mode if you haven't moved far enough to exceed your normal movement distance. Some way to see how much of your movement a command will take, so you don't have to inch across the map if you want to save movement for a stance change, like having the movement bar flashing the amount of your movement giving a command to the current cursor location will take or marking the 25//50/75 breakpoints on the movement distance indicator field thingy. And letting you move your 25 or whatever % while encamped, so you don't have to do the move a bit, encamp, end turn, move a bit, encamp dance, if you want to move and replenish in hostile territory.

Bottom left of the UI, there's a meter divided into quarters which empties as you move around (and also shows different movement allowance usage if you hold down right-click and move the mouse around).

Bottom left, there's a semi-circular gauge around your general's portrait showing your movement allowance, with indicators for each 25%. Hold right-click and move the mouse around and it'll deplete according to how much that particular move will expend.

Oh okay. I did know about the movement gauge, but didn't realize that I had to hold the button down to see the usage. I just thought that I had to move a bit, see how much movement it took, then move a bit again until I was sufficiently close to whatever threshold I wanted.

There's a lot of little helpful UI features that sadly they don't explain. Party elite's videos are good. https://youtu.be/TAzA9FmP76U?list=PLwVftHdWAdHNOJ-PMquSZMVVAGWIq2TVQ

Yeah this is what I have been doing too, so many messed up turns where I manage to overshoot the threshold even while inching forward. I'll have to remember to hold right-click I guess.

Now, if could only learn to disable marching mode when I'm moving my armies into a position for a multi-stack attack or a siege, so I don't realize that none of my armies can attack once I've got them all set up around the enemy.

I kinda disliked the dark elf concept but jesus they're so over the top black metal edgelords that i now want to play as them. Mostly because they're yet another faction that you can kill elves with.
