    Shoulda figured these guys would make it back into the game. And yes, it looks like he has the Huskarls axe, while the Huskarl has his. Maybe someone will swap the units weapons in 3dsmax after the release?

    mèh, another not very exciting unit. Thus far I have only seen one very good unit (zweihander), one very..."odd" unit (english swordsmen), the rest are average at best.
    When M2:TW was announced, I hoped that each faction would have at least 4-5 (new) unique units. I'm afraid that we won't see much new units at all.

    Sort of happy he is back... I kind of liked these guys in MTW.

    But this fellow seems pretty stupid... I mean stealing from a Huscarl. Yeah, real bright!

    Seriously though, why does he have such a large axe? And why does it have inlaid decorations? Doesn't seem very woodaxe'ic to me. He carries an expensive and overly big weapon of war.
    That axe would be really bad at cutting down trees. Too big, too heavy and too long.

    I have to agree with drone, Trajen, and Kraxis. It's a good-looking unit, but I think the woodsmen and the Huscarle must've accidentally switched axes in a bar somewhere. (They were probably too drunk to realize it that the time. )

    Also agree that the axes got swapped. The Woodsman's axe also seems to have intricate carvings and such on it. It looks very nice, but no lowly woodsman is going to have a master-crafted 2H poleaxe. They should have hatchets and/or axes with handles of the 3'-4' long variety.
