Movement point costs for units using Foot movement are multiplied by 1.5 during Mud turns.
Movement points costs for units using Ski movement are multiplied by 4 during Mud turns.

You can check the penalties in the lower part of the parameter data dialog after scrolling through most of the information.

The MG units can only be moved in T-mode and will always use Ski movement, but you could consider switching the Alpine Jaeger units to Deployed mode if they don't use Ski movement as their basic movement type. That way, the 1.5x MP cost penalty applies instead of the 4x MP cost penalty.

Thanks but this is not the issue as I am used to the mud penalties-being halfway through the campaign. This is an issue solely with the alpine units in the Alpine Korps.  All other are moving normally in the mud albeit sluggishly. The movement issue seems to happen to the units in both T mode and normal mode. Only one hex per turn regardless of the terrain or presence of a road. Just want somebody to look at it to make sure I have not missed something. If there is a penalty for ski mode-one would think it would not be present in a normal turn without snow as they would not be using skis. But as said I may be wrong here.

Ah...now I see what you are saying and this seems to be the issue. When in T mode-alpine units are considered in ski mode and pay the ski penalties for trying to move in non-snow condition. No matter if they are on a road. When they are deployed they can move normally. Of course, MG alpine units do not have that option and therefore can not ever move more than one hex. So, I have the only elite troops that the central powers ever get that must to detrain way behind the lines and really have no way of getting to the front because when in travel road they are considered to be on skis. One can imagine how trying to ski in mud might be difficult. There seems to be no way for them to travel without their skis on unless there is another mode that I have missed.
