Combat speed vs action points

from Elemental Forums

I do not understand this. What is the combat speed? Am pretty sure it is not related with action points duering battle. Example - I have 3 combat speed but 2 action points.

Can someone explain this to me please?

They should be one and the same. Where are you seeing the discrepancy?

Move points (action points) tells you how far the unit can walk on the map. Combat speed tells you of how many actions the unit can take during a combat round.

So they are different stats and no real linkage to each other.

actions=(combat speed+1.0)

therefor in your pic 2.7=(1.8+1) :P

yeah, i think it rounds up in the book and down in combat lol.  Suffice to say you add one to your combat speed to give your actions/round, so it is working as it should.

Before patch 1.05 actions=combat speed, they changed it to up the pace, and to give melee a chance to get through the archer fire i believe :).

 

Ps: just to clarify, move points ("moves" in the book) aren't used in combat.
