This is still not clear. And also such unit is not suitable for medieval game. Polonized Hussars became heavy circa second half of XVIc, so pretty much when SS (that already have extended in comparison to vanilla time frame) ending.The Polish get heavy hussars in 6.0 I believe.
When I started this thread I had no idea when 6.0 would be released. If it is really a matter of days, then maybe KK would consider introducing some improvements to Poland in next patch, 6.1 perhaps?The release is in days, maybe weeks and is being polished at the moment. Adding such a rework to the todo list most probably can't happen without a huge delay (and nobody wants a delay).
I think something like Burreks’s Sergeant Swordsmen (so infantry of medium heaviness) would be nice. Also I would give axe to polish retainers as a secondary weapon (which was equally popular as a sword among Polish medieval cavalry) and dismount them for solid medium assault infantry. Also Dismounted Nobles should not be spearmen – there are no traces in sources of noble spearmen in Polish army. The best solution would be renaming Polish Nobles to Piast Druzhina and making dismounted version javeliners.3. Define lack. What type of infantry are you looking for specifically. As far as I can tell Dis Polish Knights fulfill the role of elite hvy infantry nicely and Dis Polish Nobles serve well elite spears. Are you looking for 2h hvy infantry or 1h ap inf?
Hussite movement that made pavises extremely useful and popular among infantry in central Europe was in fact militaristic revolution that affected Polish army in large degree. Crossbowmen in late medieval period in Poland were:6. Pavise unit as in pavise crossbow? Just wanted to point out that the pavise crossbow unit that was shown in the pictures you provided was labelled as a "Mercenary Pavise". I believe that is currently a merc unit that can be recruited in the Polish sphere influence during the appropiate era.
- militia in cities (consisted of Poles)
- feudal servants in castles (consisted of Poles)
- mostly mercenaries on battlefield, but this mercenaries had various origin – mostly Bohemian, Silesian and Polish, as Poland adopted Hussite innovations and infantry tactic immediately
So you don’t want to see Polish units in accurate historical shape?1. No way for the gothic armor.
Most people here and in general players I know percept Poland as interactive, unhistorical and boring. I have brought here solid documentation and few ideas based on it how to improve Poland so it became nice (by that I mean historical and unique) faction to play.And about the regions, Poland is perfectly balanced in 5.1... let us not spoil what is already good.
I know that and say let’s revise current 500 units from the game and try to find a space for some new Polish troops.but there are only 500 unique units
Some Osprey books are better, some other not so much, but I can assure you that this one is pretty nice when we consider historical accuracy. The only thing that bothers me with those pictures is Baltic pavise shield as an equipment of Polish XIIIc troops (historically such shield become popular in Poland about one century later).Heh. I wouldn't use Osprey for any degree of historical accuracy. There's some cool pictures, but that's about it.
Stupid is your intolerance and arrogance.OMG no no no not another ing stupid polish supporters
Actually we are making our mod ( http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=144354 ), but it will provide regional gameplay, while SS is mod with global map theatre.get it through your head 6.0 IS DONE, if you want it changed learn to mod and do it yourself.
Ridiculous is that you read but don’t understand the text. We are suggesting, helping with ideas and materials, but making no demands!I’sorry, this is just like the 6th time in two weeks ive ran into people saying "you have to change the mod" and its ridiculous.
If so, then why Polish roster is one of the smallest, and Polish infantry probably the weakest with largest compound of peasantry?I think we can all agree on the fact that we all want to see our nations represented as realistic and good as possible.
I do not believe that Poland got less attention from CA then any other faction.
In general I’m very disappointed that I started the thread as an initiative for positive changes in SS and got bashed by some malcontents and comments like “not again annoying stupid Polish supporters”. You know what is really annoying and stupid? Treating all Poles as stubborn nationalists and being blind for arguments and deaf for reasonable discussion. I think someone here is prejudiced against Poles, shameful matter
