After playing around with the crusade and jihad units in the unitprod11 file I made an amazing discovery. The Jihad piece can be used by pagan factions for things like:
Raids-Quests Etc. Making Pagan units stackable in MTW. This is quite simple to acomplish.

You simply make the jihad unit available to the pagan religion and you make the pagan faction behaviour muslim expansionist (Altho I dont think it matters) And make the unit available by building a church (Temple) or watever and it plays quite well. As a bonus, you ge those hashishin archers and can mount huge raids on lands that have been taken from you. It is an awsome discovery for me since i have been trying along with patrick the jewish civil rights creator to get this to work. I dont advice using the crusade piece. The jihad piece can be modified as well. The possiblities are endless. I will make this available on the next Patrician Update.

I am still testing it and this is what I found so far:
The Pagan Raid (Jihad) ability is possible under three separate religions at the same time. IE orth muslim pagan
all three factions can mount raids altho the AI will not use the Raid function unless the faction is muslim.
You can mount multiple raids at the same time but I would not advice it, It may crash the game.
When your raid army passes through friendly territory the declare war event activates even tho it is your faction territory.
Do not let your raid army stand in a friendly province too long or you will begin to loose men. LOL Guess Pagans change their minds allot.
It is best to mount raids on the nearest border of the land that was taken from you. In all, it serves as an interesting choice for the player. Just to be able to stack a huge army on your borders.
