Boots of Speed increase land movement by +600.
Equestrian Gloves increase land movement by +300. They do not work cumulatively.

If the hero is moving from one terrain type to another (potential) penalty is calculated based on the terrain from which he is moving into another. So, if you move from grass to swamp there is no penalty, but there is one if moving back to grass.
If a hero attacks a tile beside a wandering stack his movement will deduce based on the terrain from which he is moving into the attacked tile after winning. The same works if a hero is moving onto a map object: he will lose movement based on the tile in which he was standing just prior.
If the hero attacks a wandering stack directly (therefore not moving into the spot the wandering stack occupies) his movement will deduce based on the terrain from which he is attacking. The same works when hero is picking up resources.

No Air magic Fly penalty is the same as Basic Air (140%).
Interesting fact is that penalties apply only if hero traverses terrain that would bear penalty normally. If the hero has the neccessary Pathfinding skill to nullify terrain penalty he doesn’t even need to have Air magic, he will always fly full movement.

Unit receives +1 to Attack and Defense when hero’s level reaches unit’s level.
Unit’s base Attack and Defense increase based on the following (independent of the above):
A/Dnew = A/Dbase * (1 + 0,05 * Hero level / Unit level)

SPECIAL CASE: TOWN SIEGE WHEN FORT, CITADEL OR CASTLE BUILT
The first units to play are Turrets if the defending hero has Artillery as a secondary skill. If no such hero is defending then it`s always the attacker's Catapult.
If the Turrets wait they will take their turn in War Machine phase.
If the Catapult waits it will take its turn in War Machine phase.
If the attacker has Ballistics, and the defender has Artillery, attacker will play first (with his Catapult) if and only if his Ballistics skill is higher than the defender's Artillery skill, otherwise the defender (Turrets) will play first.

I don't understand what you mean with unit specialty. Isn't ballista +1 every 10 levels starting from lvl5? I wrote that in ballista section.
And the other, please explain.
edit: ok, I think I got it. Is this what you mean:
A/Dnew = RoundUp {A/Dbase * [1 + 0,05 * RoundDown (Hero level / Unit level)]}

Of course, +1A/D when level is reached is a clumsy construction, this is much better.

HERO'S SPELL SPECIALTY
This is true for all spell specialty heroes save Ciele and Luna, including Astral and Uland.
Hero's spell specialty bonus is calculated as:
(1 + Hero level * 0,03 / Unit level)
The bonus is additive with base spell damage.
The bonus is negligible against higher level units.

HERO'S UNIT SPECIALTY
Unit specialties work for both unapgraded and upgraded units (but is calculated differently for Ballista, see above).
Unit receives +1 speed immediately.
Unit’s base Attack and Defense increase based on the following (independent of the above):
A/Dnew = RoundUp {A/Dbase * [1 + 0,05 * RoundDown (Hero level / Unit level)]}

still incomplete and therefore wrong

I presume its the same as normal, only the tile where you move from counts.
