Has anyone had any medics and do they work?

[Larsenex]

I build medics and attach them to units like infantry or Artillery. I cannot tell if they are working. Do they increase the rate of healing passively just by being around? (This is what I suspect they do) but there is zero documentation on how they work or such.

The label says they heal adjacent units. So should you 'uncouple' them and leave them behind while the troops fight up front?

I thought I read somewhere that they allow your units to heal even while taking a turn.

Same boat, built one and forgot to see if they worked

They do work, albeit it's not very clear in the general mess of UI. I played AW and attached one to my units. Helped.

I believe they heal the unit in the same tile, but I haven't done specific tests to prove it.

According to the information i found while searching for this:
- heals adjecant units extra if they heal by themselves, for example because they skip the turn.
- does not heal the unit it is standing on/coupled with (for whatever reason)
