Thanks for your thoughts. I want to keep an English feel - hence the longbow/ bill mix and I went for the Mtd sargents for pursing routers/ driving off HA/LC etc. The point re speed etc is well made, so I will use Jinettes instead. The question now is the last unit - 1 more ChKnt or 1 more CMAA or a merc HA. I will ponder and let you know tomorrow. The challenge is to see if the one stack can take down the whole faction. I am probably stronger unit for unit, but overall outnumbered.
