As far as I can tell, there is no way to increase the movement rate for
 units in units.ruleset without also increasing the total number of
attacks.  I seriously doubt you would want to do the latter.  If you
really wanted a units ruleset solution, I would suggest putting a factor
in the [units_adjust].  (Adjusting terrain.ruleset could work, too, but
would mean allowing fractional movement_cost.)

OTOH, I think a movement rate multiplier would work especially well for
scenario maps.
