New/Unlocked unit "Superior Line infantry"?

[Husar]

I just saw something that I found really strange, I looked at the fifth tier barrack upgrade for Prussia and it had a unit called "Superior Line Infantry" that I am pretty sure I've never seen before.
So where does this unit come from? 1.5? Or was it in before 1.1 or 1.2 and just now returned? Has anyone else seen it? :inquisitive:

I'm sorry if it seems like a stupid question but I played as Prussia twice before and am pretty sure I could never recruit this unit.

No, you have not seen it before. It is new to 1.5 and Prussia has it, and I think, Sweden.

[AggonyDuck]

It's a 1.5 unit.

On a not really related note, why did they mess up the unit sorting in armies with 1.4?
Before I had the general first, then cannons or cavalry, then line infantry etc. but now the game mixes them all throughout the army and instead of Shift-selecting them I have to use CTRl and click every single unit. It would be fine if i were allowed to shuffle units around myself but that does not seem to be possible. :wall:

Oh and thanks for the answers.

The random order of the armies irritates me. I hate grouping them in the battle because that's too rigid but I want their unit cards to be close together!:wall:

Which factions have (and don't have) the superior line infantry?

Prussia and Sweden have them.

You can look them up on Le FUSIL v-5-0

I noticed the Superior Line Infantry unit was always recorded in the unit_tables of the patch.pack file ever since I first started peeping at the data files. It seems strange that it was disabled all this time, only to be abruptly introduced in 1.5.

I don't know why they are newly introduced, but they are.:shrug:
