AOV519's Peasants on Wheels

Description
This small unit pack adds two new units to the Bretonnian roster, Peasant War Wains and Supply Wains. While they technically don't exist in any edition of the tabletop game, they're still designed to fit within the constraints of the lore where appropriate and thus shouldn't feel out of place.

Peasant War Wains are melee "chariots" that are, of course, ridden by determined (or perhaps insane) peasants. Now, these peasants may not be allowed to ride to battle on horseback, but I haven't seen anything in the lore that could prevent them from using farm wagons as improvised war vehicles! As for the units themselves, they may quite possibly be the worst chariots in the game, but are also cheap and expendable.

Meanwhile, Supply Wains are a support unit with a limited use active ability that replenishes ammunition and slightly decreases the missile reload time for a targeted friendly missile unit, as well as a passive that can heal nearby friendly units over time. In terms of actual fighting capabilities, however, don't expect them to do much.

FEATURES:
- Full interaction with the Knights and Peasants system introduced in Update 3.1.
- Tabletop Caps support. Peasant War Wains are Core units, while Supply Wains cost 1 point each towards the Special units cap.

RECRUITMENT IN CAMPAIGN:
- When playing as any Bretonnian faction, both units can be recruited at the Farm building chain (tier 1 or higher for Peasant War Wains, tier 2 or higher for Supply Wains). The recruitment of either unit will incur penalties towards your faction's Peasant Economy.

BUGS & ISSUES:
- None reported so far.

TO DO:
- A new banner icon for Supply Wains, maybe?
- Rebalance and make changes based on user feedback, if necessary.

These units are absolute crap. Love it!

@sigmars_disciple - This mod should already run without issues for version 5.1.x as I don't think there's anything that needs updating right now.

Sorry to ask for clarification again, but it would be lovely to see (for any mod on the Workshop) if a mod is up-to-date for the latest version 5.1.x - here, based on the comment section and an update in May I wouldn't necessarily expect an issue but think it's worth clarifying as I'm pretty sure you know the answer, dearest author <3 thanks

Really like this unit!

Looks like you updated this for 5.0, correct? Always helpful if the modder says that here in a top comment <3 Glad to see this pack, I really like this one and of course the Bretonnian War tower by @Gorilla <3

Is this in need of an update?

Still working in 4.0.5, I assume?

This is really cool and even though this unit does not exist in tabletop or in the lore it fits right in, it also fills a gap in the roster. Peasants are allowed to ride horses by the way, famously everyone traverse on horseback within the bretonnian empire.

Is there any chance you can make the AI recruit less? I love the unit but when the AI are running 12 stacks
