agreed, the scots need some sort of equalizer if they are to hang tough with those imperialistic english bastards. the highlanders with "excellent attack" and fast movement would be good for that. however i think some sort of pike will be just as important in the equalizing role, as they will offset any english cavalry superiority. they are also, historically, the unit that secured scottish independence at the time.

I love playing small nations, nothing like making denmark an economical and military superpower through trading and small, elite housecarl armies.

speaking of denmark and england, i recently read that the english/welsh longbow originally stemmed from scandinavia. armored, axe-carrying viking longbowmen anyone?
