Units of conquered enemies

[TevashSzat]

Well, that is basically like mercenaries which offer some degree of customability. You can try to increase which mercs you can hire after a faction is destroyed, but I guess it isn't realistic if you could train the enemy units since units are more based on how they are trained and you would be lacking instructros.

Realism of course depends on the conquerable units, granted.
It'd just be an interesting thing in the campaign.

I for one enjoy playing different factions for their limitations as well as their strengths. Having a very strong infantry as well as a very strong cavalry can lead to a boring game. The French are an example of this in my opinion, having all the groovy knights, the longbow horse archer unit coupled with Scots guard melee longbowmen, Aventurier, Voulgiers, Pikemen etc. That's why some of the "minor" factions are fun to play. Thus far the Polish have been the most interesting faction to play.

I wouldn't object having a mercenary pike unit available in Scotland, though. There are the Swiss ones in Europe after all.

I considered it as a measure to strengthen factions like Byzantium in the later game, if they manage to defeat other factions.

Oh yeah, Poland is awesome. I love their mounted nobles.

Playing Russia I have a different oppinion of those cursed nobles!
