Re: I Stand Converted
TBH I prefer Arbalesters to gunpowder units. I guess i've been unlucky using them, but all I seem to be able to get them to do is trot towards the enemy where either a) they get massacred by heavy cavalry or b) it starts to rain!
Now serpentines and volley guns on the other hand...

Normally that's also my preference - but in a Turkish campaign a while ago (they can't build Arbalesters), I had surprising success with Arquebusiers. They have good defensive stats, decent range (better than Handgunners), pierce armor, and cause fear. What's not to like?!!?

Which isn't that great itself.decent range (better than Handgunners)
Re: I Stand Converted
Ditto that. Of course, I'm not terribly fond of gunpowder units in any case. Aside from siege cannons, I rarely bother with them.
