Terrain and military units
Mountains favour ranged units and nimble spearmen, and penalise cavalry heavily. Attacking swordsmen are also hampered by the passes, gulleys and canyons that make frontal assaults more difficult.
Hills also benefit ranged units and spearmen to a lesser extent, and still penalise cavalry, but also to a lesser extent. Swordsmen are largely unaffected by hilly terrain.
Forests penalise ranged units and cavalry due to the foliage, but swordsmen and spearmen love all the opportunities for cover and ambush.
Plains provide the opportunity for cavalry to shine - their ability to manoeuvre makes them the masters of open flat space. Lightly armoured spearmen dislike the open terrain of plains, where they are easier targets for cavalry and archers
Resource distribution for military city specialization:
Unit type Resource requirement (Major + minor)
Cav Clay + Wood
archers Wood + iron
Inf Stone+ iron
Spears Clay + iron

Elite Divisions
(from Bolism's profile)
In Illyriad their are 2 types of division: Normal Division and Elite Division. Commanders and troops in Elite division, receive a double bonus from the equipment they are wearing.
In general for hunting you want to have the maximum possible number of Elite Divisions, as that improve greatly the power of our Heroic Commanders.
A division becomes Elite when you put less than the maximum number of same type troop under a commander. Here are the numbers:
| Troop Type | Max Troop in Division for Elite |
|---|---|
| Spears | 200 |
| Infantry | 150 |
| Ranged | 100 |
| Cavalry | 60 |
Tracking Movement
Stationary Unit = No arrows
1 arrow = 1-7 squares per hour
2 arrows = 8-16 squares per hour
3 arrows = 17-25 squares per hour
4 arrows = 26-41 squares per hour
5 arrows = 41+ squares per hour
