In the time period we are looking at, the food would have been carried by the troops themselves, not on the commanders' pack animals. Yes, by making food trade goods, horses can mitigate the slowdown from with carrying food, but that slowdown should not have been there in the first place. I think it is a bad move to have food slow the party down. So apperantly horses slow you down even more? Just going to leave this here so people won't need to look for it. The quality of the mount does not affect overland speed. If there is nothing to counteract, herding the horses is a net negative.ĭismounted characters slow you down unless they are REALLY good at walking.
