Tomorrow I should get time to post some more of the cool Hungarian units in action. Here's a last one for today. It's good in the sense that you can see more than you usually can in this screenie. I don't know how it got streched like that. It's prolly a bug shot. The right side of the screen I could not see at all when I took the shot, as I was facing the left side with the little forest.

Look at the Szekely Horseman in the midlle, chasing down a fleeing Nizari...
...amidst artillery fire. You can tell this is Szekely, and not a supporting Feudal Knight,
by the round shield.

The Szekely pull back...
