Yea, seems like that, I will correct them

I know there's probably not much in the of Jewish MAAs, but I'd love to see something if possible. There's not a lot of updated jewish flavour in mods, and in base game the Shomer MAA kinda sucks. I love the work you're doing so far though, keep it up!

Do Visigoths get access to the Spanish army?

No, if Im not mistaken, they are a dead culture at the game start

@Koni
I'm not angry. I just don't like people making up things. There is no real reason why knights should have different stats in the first place.
French knights being superior to other European knights is nothing but a myth. They didn't wear better armor than German knights or Dutch ones. They weren't taller or stronger or better trained, hence there is no reason to give them different stats.

As I said, French and German knights have same "base" stats, the difference (on the screenshot) comes from character perks (Parthian Tactic?)

My proposals for Sardinian units (for the stats, I have no idea though) :

KITA DE BUIAKESOS ("company of guardians")
Cavalry and heavy infantry

These were mounted soldiers chosen for the bodyguard of the Judges ("judikes"). Company ("kita") of guardians ("buiakesos"), to watch over the borders; vigilance was fixed in shifts of a week (hence kita = cida with the meaning of week).
The personal defense of the sovereign was entrusted to them (in Logudoro and Arborea); this company was made up of guards armed with "birrudu" or verrutto or verruda (from the Latin "verutum"), a weapon similar to a cutting billhook, which was feared at the time. It was an escort of chosen knights, the best, those who guaranteed the protection of the lives of the rulers of the Sardinian nation.

BURDOCKS
Light cavalry

The "burdaneri" are a typical Sardinian unit dedicated to skirmishing in battle and, outside of battle, to stealing enemy cattle. These sudden and unpredictable assaults, followed by an equally swift retreat, is called "burdock" in local parlance. Riding on the small island horses, which lend themselves well to the rugged terrain of Sardinia, Bardaneri are able to outclass heavy cavalry with ease. Armed with long spears, they can charge at enemies, then engage them hand-to-hand with their light axes.

BIRRUDU
Light infantry

"Sa berruda, as it was known at the time of the Judikes, was made famous by the son of Constantine judge of Torres, Salthar(o), who took part in the siege of the balearic islands, leading a contingent of armigers from the kingdom of Torres together with a squad of the Giudicato of Calari. With his Berruda he massacred the Moors and was used both as a javelin and as a cutting weapon."
Pisan Chronicles

Infantry armed with the same name weapon. The "birrudu", or verrutto or verruda (from the Latin "verutum"), is a weapon derived from the javelin of Roman origins. Over the centuries it has transformed from a throwing weapon into a melee weapon: a sort of short spear with a blade, a kind of billhook. They wear a heavy cloak and are practically unarmoured, as they avoid open confrontation and prefer to move nimbly in ambush or skirmish tactics.

PELLITES
Light infantry

"Sardinia produces livestock [...] called moufflons, and with their skins they are used by shepherds to make armor. They also use a light leather armor and a short dagger."
Strabo

The Sardinian shepherds, called "pelliti", used small round leather shields, short daggers, and armor made of leather and pressed mouflon skins. Fierce and wild warriors of the Sardinian mountains, mostly semi-nomadic shepherds and bandits, these fighters are accustomed to infighting, raiding and kidnapping.

LEPPA
Light infantry

The "leppa" is the typical Sardinian slashing knife, supplied as the only weapon to Sardinian breeders, conscripted by force to defend castles and to swell the ranks of the battle line. The overall length of the leppa varied from 50 to 70 centimetres, but the first medieval laws already tended to limit the length of the blade, as this weapon had become very popular among brigands.

SARDINIAN VIRGAS
Ranged or Skirmish infantry

"On the one hand, the Sardinian army was strong, it could count on the strength of the formidable Genoese crossbowmen, but on the other, the infantrymen had no armor and were armed with a rudimentary weapon, called a Sardinian virga."
Chronicle of Pisa

The "Sardinian virgas" are troops who carry the homonymous polearms. The virga is characterized by a rather long wooden body and has a fairly squat pyramidal steel cusp, making it more suitable for breaking through resistant armor such as plate cuirasses. The virga is a very ancient shardana weapon, born as a throwing weapon: in the Judicial period it gradually transformed into a melee weapon. Used as a short spear, it has a longer blade than the "birrudu", and is curved at the tip.

GENERIC UNITS
- Caddigatori (knights)
- Lantzeri (lancers on foot)

social classes until the fourteenth century:
- Lìeros (singular lieru, free men. the loros mannos are the common citizens, required to pay the munus tax; the maiorales are those chosen for public functions)
- Culibertos or Serbos\serbidori o Teraccos (singular culibertu or serbu\serbidore or teraccu, feudal servitude. in particular teraccos refers to land, country servitude. feminine: ankillas, handmaids)
- Pinnarzu (wanderers)

Hey, just a heads up from a Serbian guy. Correct names for Serbian Army (Serbian) are:

Pešadija - skirmishers until 970 AD
Pešadija - skirmishers after 970 AD
*All skirmishers, no matter the time period were called "Pešadija".

Strelci - archers after 970 AD
*All archers, no matter the time period were called "Strelci".

Teška pešadija - heavy infantry until 990 AD
Teška pešadija - heavy infantry after 990 AD
*All heavy infantry, no matter the time period were called "Teška pešadija", but if you want to differentiate a bit you can call HI after 990 AD "Vitezovi". It is not 100% correct though, because "Vitezovi" were warriors from a noble cast, so correct translation to english for "Vitezovi" were "Knights". So "Vitezovi" are more appropriate for Armored Horsemen than HI.

Teška konjica - armored horsemen after 1080 AD
*You can safely call them "Teška konjica"and not "Vitezovi", because that is the correct term, and also, you NEEDED to be a noble and a knight-(Vitez) to be able to afford horse and armor. And also only nobles had a privilege to be a horsemen. No regular commoner could, or would be admitted in this elite force.

Cheers! <3

Lekhaiya pe"hota"

Lekkahota In polish sounds like a drunk guy would say: Lekka Piechota.
Please change it. If it's too long just use Piechota.

And for polish heavy cavalry after innovation: Rycerze or Ciężka Kawaleria or Ciężka Jazda
