What are the chances of contracting Plague from a Trad March? Conquest? Bounce?
I'm wondering whether it slides like gains on a conquest.

Obliously you could not send like 1 soldier and get the plague or be attacked by 1 soldier and recieve it, that would be abusable.
AFAIK, bounces can give plague, but the % scales depending on how much of a fail the attack was.
Also, for successful attacks, the % is the same whether you plunder, raze, etc.
I see, thank you. :)
I'm still interested in exact numbers, if they're known. I'm daydreaming about the efficacy of a single Ud plague-bearer in a full KD.

Best thing is when you hit someone as a race or personality that is immune to plague, then get the plague regardless with no effects and the next person hitting you gets the plague from you, I have seen it happen a few times, I think once was in war and I actually spread it by hitting the second target. I think spread from a non plague bearer is where the +500% or is it only +300% usually comes in with the undead bonus, meaning it is 3-5 times more likely to get the plague from an undead than from someone else having the plague. I think that is the only exact number I can give.
I think plague spreading should be increased to 100% chance, whether it's first or second-hand plagues.
Are hospitals just as effective for undead personality?
Undead have constant plague, so they are 0 effective when it comes to curing.
As for casualties, it depends I guess. If you get -25% losses from hospitals that would be -25% for UD and non-UD both, and achievable on the same amount of hosps. But with an already innate loss bonus UD doesn't multiplicate as well. Losses for a non-UD would be 1*0.75=0.75%, while losses for UD would be 0.7*0.75=0,525%, so less impactful in terms of # troops saved in each hit.
Same goes for Barracks and tact bonus for instance. The lowered army time is the same in %, but less in hours and minutes for tact than for non-tacts.
