I have been playing the MTW for about one year already and I love the game. I have found many very interesting units in several factions, but there is this one that particularly calls my attention.
Peasants are by far, the cheapest units of them all. That is a great advantage and makes them specially useful for garrisoning provinces and castles/forts.
They also have a good number of troops but a very low force of attack and defence and the lowest morale. Although I have faced to some high valour units through my games that have made my men sweat a little to beat them, and I have used them myself for some flanking tactics successfully as well.
I have also found their generals get some of the highest acumens and therefore, some of my best governors (I assume I am not the only one) They are good garrisoning during sieges and they become expendible when necessary to sacrifice some troops to achieve some victories.
But besides their military aspects, I found them very valuable for garrisoning, as I said; because their high acumen. I wonder ¿is there a way to get the most benefits of this virtues? Is it recommendable to have more than one Peasant unit (despites possible rebellions) to increase acumen or income in a Province? What is the best way to get the most of them?
