In Romania, haiduks were light cavalry... I have found also the explanation of Haiduks in Romanian - Men who lived in the 16th,17th,18th and they were "out-of-law" - Rarely Haiduks fought on foot....

Good it is finally explained...

Waiting for more information.

I consider the Danube factions' rosters ready. I only need more images.

The thread will be used for MOntenegro and Balcan allies of the Ottomans.

Please don't try to make Transsylvania a Romanian like fraction. In fact this is the only real Hungarian fraction. By that time it was mostly populated by Hungarians and Germans, save for the southern parts. The political and military rule was based on the alliance of the three nations of Transsylvania, the Hungarians, the Székelys (Hungarians with right of self governance for military duty for a fixed period) and the Germans. Militarily the elected Prince was in command of the regular Transsylvanian troops ( heavily financed but not contributed by the German Citizens), for a limited period (only abroad) the Székelys plus (mostly) hired Hajdús from Eastern Hungary and the Partium (no-one's land of some counties between the kingdom of Hungary, Transsylvania and the Turkish occupied lands of central Hungary centered around Debrecen (should be made rebel province). There were no boyars (no romanian nobles in Transsylvania, no pandurs, or anything like that.
The Székelys living in mountainous parts were mostly (say 80%) infantry, while the mounted Székelys (lófős) were in command, or formed smaller units. The regular army had more expensive armoured Hussars (lighter than those in Poland and definately without the cool wings) plus musketmen, and other infantry. The Hajdús were light infantry or cavalry (about half) little or no armour and somewhat less organized I would suggest

Székely talpasok - light inf
Székely lovasság - light cavalry
Hajdúk - light infantry
Lovas hajdúk - light cavalry
Puskások - Musketeers
Talpasok - medium infantry
Huszárok - Medium cavalry
Pattanytúsok - arty
Szász polgárőrök - medium inf, armoured
Peasants or irregulars

If you wist these can be expanded a bit.
