ie, the AI moving infantry first, then armor. Is the AI following a rule like: move units with the lowest movement allowance first? I know there's been discussion about this over the years, but can't remember the details. Anyway, there are some obvious Bad Things with this: eg infantry clogging things up for armor moving "later" over the same ground, reducing its effective movement capability. Are there any Good Things? Why not just make it: move units with highest movement allowance first?

Checking a few scenarios at random, it sometimes seems to be: move the formation with the lowest average movement allowance first. But that's not always the case, so something more complicated is going on.
