What's exactly every chevron (in a same level) does to an unit?

[MerkeKING]

I've always wondered what each chevron does to a unit (Medieval 2 Kingdoms/DLCS, Crusades, Brittania, Teutonic...). Since I only play multiplayer, you can't put more than 3 bronze chevrons. I've always wondered what happens when a unit has 2 or 3 chevrons.


What I understand is that 1 chevron increases a unit's attack and morale, as well as making archers shoot a little better, but what about the 2nd chevron? What exactly does it do? The 3rd same.


What is the difference between putting only 1 and 2, 3 chevrons in a unit?

Chevrons also increase morale.

lol that's exactly what I said. I already know this, but I want to know what's the difference between giving 1 and 2-3 bronze chevron to an unit

I just checked in a custom battle against AI. Maybe they increase morale but in terms of visible stats there is no difference between a unit with 1 chevron and a unit with 3.

I tested the Levy Spearmen. Basic unit stats

Attack: 5
Charge bonus: 2

Total defense: 7
Armour: 0
Defense skill: 1
Shield: 6
Hitpoints: 1



Units with 1-3 bronze chevrons had 6 attack, units with 1-3 silver had 7 attack and units with 1-3 gold had 8 attack.


How to check for yourself: start a custom battle -> Pause battle -> Double click on unit to open unit card.
