Light dragoons can act as missile cavalry.

Thanks. If Austria has a rather unique rooster, what are their units?

a) A large line infantry 150 vs 120.
b) Light dragoons
c) ?
d) ?

-Austria also has some Light Infantry with 125 range(Line Inf has 70) and some irregular infantry with 80 range and otherwise pretty crap stats.

Hakkapeliitta is Finnish light cavalry. Too bad they made them weaker then generic regional light cavalry though (stat wise at least)... their only advantage is that they don't suffer as much cold fatigue from what I can see.

russia has alot of cossack troops and also streloks infantry and cavalry as militia/police forces that date from the previous century and their line infantry has only 35 vs the usual 45 accuracy, they are slightly cheaper though iirc.

As others have mentioned Austria get Pandours, which are essentially a militia version of light infantry; slightly longer range than line infantry, but otherwise pretty weak.

They also get Jaegers late on, very long-range light infantry.

From Hungary they can recruit Uhlans cavalry, which I believe they share with Poland, and Hungarian Hussars, which I suspect they don't.

Strelets, you mean.

I do think it's funny, considering 'Strelets' is a Russian loan word from Polish which means 'shooter' that the unit in question doesn't have a gun.
