This ties in well with what I'm actually trying to achieve. I have renamed Archers to "Foresters" and I may extend the availability of woodsmen somewhat. At the moment, as you have hinted, there are gaps (some of which are huge) that need to be filled.

Yes, along with Berber Camels, Nubian Spearmen and Desert Horse Archers.

If you have any input as to the correct structure of the unit rosters I'd be glad to read it.
