I think too many players seriously underestimate the value of carts. You pay for them once (unless you lose so many men you can't keep them all) and they do wonders for travel with many wounded. When its winter and you have wounded men, carts can be a lifesaver.
That's my point though, I've either had it where I've sustained barely any casualties to make it worth it, or I experience a total unit wipe and can't make use of them. Will they shorten travel times without wounded at all? If so then they might be worthwhile. Currently the carts are coded as being pulled along by your unit right? Maybe if they are changed so as to not require the men to pull them (pulled by horse, etc), but increase the rate of consumption of food rations, they might be more worthwhile?
