[0.802][Bug/Gameplay]While escorting I can move 2 squares a turn

from Elemental Forums

I've noticed that, on escorts, the champion's movement is reduced to 1.0 move/turn.  I found I can move my hero 1 square which will move the person I'm escorting one square too.  Then I can click on the person I'm escorting and move them one square ahead of my champion. 

Basically, I can move two squares per turn on an escort quest. 

I'm taking a shot in the dark here, but that doesn't seem to be the intent behind the escort quest.  And if it were, it would be easier to do I think.

As a gentleman, the Sovereign is obliged to carry his ward 1 tile every turn as to not tire her noble butt out. Then, of course, after she moves her obligatory 1 tile and tires, the SoV then has to catch up and carry her noble butt the next tile. (rinse and repeat)

That is Nobility for you... :thumbsup:

It looks like anytime your sovereign is stacked with another unit and the whole stack moves, only the sovereign loses movement points.  After he's moved, you can then move the other units in the stack.

I picked the Sovereign with Organized trait, and yet even though he had 12 movement I couldn't make anyone move at the speed of my Sovereign. That should let you escort faster, though. 

Currently for slightly faster escort quests, you can research the military bits that aid movement rate, advanced tracker and the like. Even the little noblemen and women will get an extra .1 movement rate.
