    Default Re: Units not in the game that should be?

    I would like to see Zirli Nefer type unit.

    A Janissary special force squad, employing a variety of weapons. Different men having different weapons. Musketeers, Archers, Swordsmen, Polearms all in the same mix with different secondary weapons too.

    Actually I'd like to see men at arms class (medium skill) units with different weapons, clubs, maces etc.

    I'd like to see a lot more detail in the heraldry on all sides. It's beautiful already but it makes you hunger for more.

    This is actually very easy to research. I can produce about 20 different Janissary heralds in about 10 minutes, probably less as it would take like 5 minutes of scanning, a minute of uploading, a minute of linkage and there you go. The same can be done for many, many of the units on all factions.

    I'd also like to see more detail on the female figures OFC ... and more sounds ... more movies !!! :P

    What I don't understand is how some factions get gunpowder infantry and others don't....Scotland has no gunpowder infantry? France too? Maybe I just missed something.

    To lars:about tagmata and stratiotai(info from steven runciman`s byzantine civilization)
    Tagmata were 4 diferent divisions
    1.ikanatoi
    2.vigla
    3.exkuvitarii
    4.sholes
    Each numbered about 1500
    The byzantine tactics in 8th-11th centure insisted on 8200 accompaning the emperor some of the came from the provinces and not from the tagmata
    As for the stratiotai i think(not sure) they were lightly armoured troops used by the venetians mostly in the former byzantines towns and were mostly local greeks
