Sounds good - my impression from the two faction previews so far, plus the custom battle screens, is that factions will have a somewhat larger choice of units than in MTW and RTW. I may be wrong, but I hope not.

Great info, thanks cegorah. I wonder if the Polish Retainers will be as good in MTW2 as they were in MTW. The description seems to make them somewhat weaker than I'd expect them to be, ie. their lower social status and weaker armor are clearly evident. I bet they won't be one of the best cavalry units anymore, maybe the Polish Knights will replace them as that elite horse unit in the game.

So much units for just 1 faction?

Is that in Custom Battle (so it includes Mercs) or in campaign?

I can't imagine they took such a big step. In RTW we had about 5 inf types, 4 cav, and max 2 archers.

Well there are a lot of units in the custom battle screens here:

There are 32 for the Portugese and 31 for the Turks. I had not thought about them including mercs, though.

I think we have been told there are about 5 unique units per faction, so I think we will get more units per faction than RTW or MTW.

Well it says "Period" (or Era) and no Period is selected, so that might be all units you can recruit. If I'm correct I see Musketeers and Normandic like warriors (forgive my noobishness) at the same time.
