Wiki pages for units, ships, and agents updated from the unit prod files, "Faction Discount" field added to the unit infobox on the top rightside of the page. I did not update units with impossible discounts, but did update for non-recruitables (foot knights). The discounts for run-of-the-mill units were fine for the most part, there were culture conflicts with some artillery pieces and the Poles had discounts for Orthodox clergy.

The basic discounts are:
  • French get love for High (all "chivalric" units and crossbows), plus Bishops/Cardinals
  • Italians get all galleys and firearms, plus Italian Light Infantry
  • Swiss get all varieties of pikes and Urban Militia
  • Danes get Vikings and Longboats
  • The Byz get Spies/Assassins/Emissaries, Naptha, and Genoese Sailors
  • Germans get all "gothic" units, some cannons, and Turcopoles
  • English get Archers, Billmen, Gallowglasses, some cannons, Cog
  • Novgorod gets Woodsmen, Russians get Horse Archers
  • Turks get siege cannon, Ghazis and Khwarazmian Cav
  • Egyptians get Camels Warriors
  • Aragonese get all Inquisitors and Carracks
  • Burgundy get Mounted Crossbows


For VI, Welsh get Assassins and Archers, Saxons get Armoured Spearmen, and the Mercians get Spies.

Anyone know if the discounts have any effect on multiplayer army selection? That would be stupid for balance purposes, but
