What is the formula for calculating army travel time along with cartography levels? Please give an example for the below how to calculate:
Speed- 80IM/hr
Cartogrpahy lev-17
Distance - 1044 IM

I asked this question in "Ask a Player" and they gave me the lamest reply:
The easiest way to figure this out, is to plug the name of the "potential" target into the attack menu, and also fill the fields with your slowest units, in your case I suspect either Trebuchets, Guardians, or Phalanx.. Then, click the "attack info" tab and a drop down will appear, it will give you your travel time information. =)

They treat every1 as in beginner level...i wanted to know the mechanics...Thanks!

t=(distance/(unit_speed*(1+ cartography_level/10 ))) * 60
if you send only cavalry
t=(distance/(unit_speed*(1+ cartography_level/10 + war_horses*0,03))) * 60

The formula above is right, you have to do the conversion from decimal to seconds, and then do the calculation to have it on the format of hours minutes and seconds.

BTW, you should never round the fractions of seconds: 29,99 seconds are 29 seconds.

thank you so much....i looked for 2 days here and there and couldnt find the answer...
And now i have it  *rose*

Please explain more on details if someone can .... i need a detailed answer on how game calculates time for army travel ? with cartography and war horses etc.. *freak* :evil3: *gamer*

i have example : cataphracts 200IM/h  - cartography 14 - warhorses 11  - distance to empire 444 = time calculated by game : 24 minutes 23 seconds ! ... how does the game get that time ???  :evil3:

t= (444/(200*(1+14*0,1+11*0,03)))*60=48,79... mins = 48 mins  47,47 secs - in normal speed realm - you probably play in 2x realm so you divide that by 2 = 24 mins 23 secs

What if this player has a colony on Heavy Horses which decreases army movement time by 10% ..... where do i add this 10% into the previous formula !!!   THANK YOU SO MUCH.
