Runaway Slave Spearmen.........Lars537 has explained this unit and I can see nothing so terribly wrong with them. A runaway slave had to find sanctuary somewhere and if that was in the ranks of his masters enemies I would not expect him to be elevated to any lofty heights. A common spearman 'that peasants look down upon' seems ok to me, let's not forget that so called peasants made up large contingents of armies. Unlike the MP lobby, not all armies were made up of elite units

Steppe Swordsmen........An all encompassing title given to units from conquered peoples, just like Steppe Spearmen. Though Horse Archer armies were the predominant armies of the Huns, they soon realised that campaigning in Europe was not the same as the open steppes. Even before Attila the Huns were using infantry. I suppose they could be called 'Subjugated Gepid Swordsmen' or other such name but Steppe Swordsmen will do IMO.

Nobody has mentioned the Chosen Warriors or Herdsmen. All in all I think CA have done a good job in presenting a few new elements to the game ( and I realise that most of the comments have been made in jest ) and some not quite accurate titles I can more than live with because if we get really picky, were there any Hunnic Elite or Heavy Cav or Lancers as units?

Boy, am I going to be a Hun. Lancers and horse archers: My kind of army.
I totally agree and I can't wait
