Moving diagonally on the map consumes 1.41 (square root of 2) times the points compared to moving vertically or horizontally. Moving on [[swamp]], [[snow]], [[sand]] or [[rough]] terrains consumes hero's movement points more than other types of terrain. This is called [[terrain penalty]]. | Moving on the map from one square to another consumes hero's movement points.

The main difference between these two is, that flying creatures can fly over obstacles (e.g. [[wall]]s) while creatures moving on ground must go around them (if able). | ||

The main factor for movement affecting all heroes is the slowest creature in the army. Every hero has a daily base movement of 1900 points, which is reduced if the hero has a creature with speed lower than 9, and increased if it is higher but no more than up to 2000 points. The effect of the slowest creature to the initial movement points can be seen in the table on the right. Artifacts increasing creatures' speed (like [[Necklace of Swiftness]]), the hero speciality of [[Sir Mullich]] and [[native terrain]] bonuses don't affect the base movement, but hero’s [[Hero_specialty#Creature_specialties|creature specialty]] does. | The main factor for movement affecting all the heroes is the slowest creature in the army.

Heroes with Logistics gain extra movement points on land, while heroes with Navigation gain extra movement points while in a boat. Heroes with Logistic or Navigation specialty further increases this bonus depending on their level. Stables gives +400 (+300{{-wh}}) movement points per day for a visiting hero for the rest of the week, while each Lighthouse the kingdom controls gives +500 movement points over water (in a boat) for all the kingdom's heroes. While visiting several Stables is not cumulative, owning several Lighthouses is. Both structures are also Castle specific buildings, but work in a similar way as the Adventure Map locations. | Heroes with Logistics gain extra movement points on land, while heroes with Navigation gain extra movement points while in a boat.
