MTW version 1.1 , question

[PrestigeX]

I am still here,

I don't really want to mess around with the game files, just to be able to get the pikemen.

I've resolved to just let it go and not worry about them... If i want to mess around with pikemen i'll just play M2TW as scotland.
It really turned out into a long debate or sometihng on this thread.. but what seems clear is that..

version 1.0.. swiss pikes are available in LATE... but not in version 1.1 .

Going back to MTW after a long spell of M2tw,, i figured 'why not upgrade it to 1.1 ... and in so doing lose out on what i remembered being the best unit in the game.. Swiss Armoured Pikemen :( .

Actually I'd recommend not playing vanilla MTW,as before I up-graded,as the byzantines I could use Crete and the other islands to produce them,so I was fielding an amry of Swiss Armoured Pikemen,Varangian guards and arbs,which took all the fun out of the game. NO AI army stood a chance against that line-up.
