Does anyone know (or has a source about) which other nations used zweihanders other then HRE and the Swiss?
I am asking this because at the moment zweihanders are under used. The HRE player simply does not need them as he has other cost efficient infantry and no other factions has them. So the idea would be to give zweihanders to other factions, however unfortunately the Swiss are not in the game.
Of course the problem is twofold:
- which faction has any historical base to get the unit? AFAIK HRE and Swiss, any others?
- which faction would benefit from it in terms of faction balance. IMO mostly Poland an Hungary as they have no late era specific inf units (only cheap heavy cavs but there are other western factions with good heavy cavs and pikes and musketeers).
