Kirslininkas unit name translates into "Chopper" and it should be changed Kirvininkas,which means Axeman.Anyway,you may want to make this Kirslininkai:Choppers.Or Kirvininkai:Axemen.Im a native Lithuanian speaker,and the language almost didin't change during medieval and ancient ages,as my history teacher says.I hope this helped.
EB team?Anyone?Okay then ill keep this to myself.
The person/people who did the names for our baltic units just hasn't seen the thread yet, be patient. The rest of the team has no clue obviously so we can't really say anything worthwhile.
Yes, patience Malik, anger leads to the dark side. Why is there no appropriate Star Wars smiley?

So is this going to be fixed or not?
You used the wrong card. This is still the first page.
Honestly: I and I guess 90-95% of the other EB members have no clue regarding the ancient languages spoken in the Baltic regions...
It is waiting for the one who does (and sadly I do not even know who that might be...)...
After doing quite a bit of research into Proto-Baltic and Balto-Slavic, besides the amazingly tedious amount of research I've been doing for Pre-Germanic Indo-European, I have gone to some effort to get some truly accurate unit names for the Balts... Lithuanian is not Proto-Baltic and EB's timeline is far before Proto-Baltic anyways so pre-Baltic Indo-European is quite close to the Pre-Germanic IE... I might have made some mistakes which I am open to correcting, but this matches various sources and follows appropriate IE rules...
Pre-BaltoSlavic Indo-European UNIT NAMES:
germanic_infantry_kirslininkas} Kirwīnīkōs (Baltic Axemen)
{germanic_missile_lankininkas} Lonkīnīkōs (Baltic Archers)
{germanic_missile_medininkas} Medjīnīkōs (Baltic Frontiersmen)
{germanic_infantry_karas_viras} Zemjones (Baltic Light Spearmen)
{germanic_infantry_karotovas} Korodrougōs (Oskywie Swordsmen)
{steppe_infantry_voinu_spearmen} Vojīnōs (Slavic Light Spearmen)
