[0.915] [Imbalance] Tireless March Can Be Cast on Henchmen

It's more than a little OP - I can create an army of my sovereign and 4 henchmen, cast Tireless March on each one, and have an army with 7 move

Every time you people say a faction ability is OP'ed, Stardock just grins.  That is exactly what they want to hear.  Altar henchmen is OP'ed...great!  Tarth monster avoidance is OP'ed ... wonderful!  Pariden's Outpost spell is OP'ed ... perfect! 

I don't hear anybody talking about Gilden, Magnar, or Yithril abilities yet.

Everybody says Resoln shard elementals are too weak.  I suspect they'll tweak those other faction abilities until they too are OP'ed then Bob's your uncle (or Robert is your father's brother if you prefer).

Henchmen are good OP, but the ability to stack tireless march on the army is reminiscent of the Beta 1 days when your sovereign's army had like 10 move and they nerfed that out of existence.  Lots of stuff in the game now is good OP, but I feel like this was an unintended consequence.

The problem isn't that henchmen can get Tireless March.  The problem is Tireless March stacks.  Limit one Tireless March per army, problem solved.  Just like with every other army-wide bonus.
