Just need to check I understand this correctly.
If an attack has movement_used=0 I assume this only benefits skirmishers?
If a non-skirmisher has an attack with movement_used=0 then from my admittedly limited testing on 1.19.24 (Windows) it appears that the attacking unit still has moves set to 0...

A workaround is to use a dummy ability and have the event be global. This is for example done in LotI for "hit and run"

Elves have a 70% evasion chance on forest.
Dragons have 40% evasion chance on nearly any ground.

Have the developers considering decreasing evlen evasion chance to 60% and give dragons some grounds where they have 50-60% evasion chance? It does feel unbalanced imo.
