I thought Sherwood archers were a fantasy unit but VHI takes the cake:
stat_pri 16, 5, no, 0, 0, melee, melee_blade, slashing, axe, 25, 1.33
Attack of a 2 handed weapon, charge of 2 handed weapon and the lethality of a 2 handed weapon in one nice package:
Example: Norse Axemen:
stat_pri 17, 6, no, 0, 0, melee, melee_blade, slashing, axe, 25, 1.33
and that of course is without the disadvantage of the 2 handed axe animation
Compare to a normal axe armour piercing one handed unit like Dismounted Boyar sons/Dismounted Huscarls/Dismounted Druzhna
stat_pri 11, 3, no, 0, 0, melee, melee_blade, slashing, axe, 25, 1.2
I know Retrofit fixes it but without nerfing the unit to much (7 attack in retrofit) and still being very useful in main vanilla campaign, I use the above (Dismounted Druzhna) stats and VHI is still a very useful line infantry especially in hot regions(low heat fatigue)
