Faction Thread: Georgia
hello friends. I found out Georgia was included in this mod but I couldnt find thread about Georgia. so I decided to do it myselfhere you can get some information about Georgia.
Kingdom OF Georgia
Unit list:
Malee
-Erovani (peasents), , recruitable only in Georgian settlements, without any armour, armed with only short swords. very low attack and deffence. very low recruitment and upkeep cost. cant be upgraded. low morale
-Kartlian spearmen (kartli is one of the regions of Georgia that always had good spearmen) . light spearmen armed with spear and small round shields. short chainmail armour with light helmet(picture is below). bonus against cavalry. recruitable only in Georgian settlements. low recruitment cost, low upkeep. normal, not bad morale.
-Khevsur Swordmen (khevsuria or khevsureti is mountainous region of Georgia famous with its swordmen). . armed with curved and straight swords (I will show them to you) and small round shields. dressed in chain mail armour and chain mail helmets. have metal armour on their hands (I will show you khevsur warrior's picture and you will understand). low deffence against arrows. excellent attack. high recruitment cost, low upkeep cost. recruitable only in Georgian settlements. ecxellent morale.
-Metsikhovne Spearmen (garrison spearmen). strong spearmen. armed with long spears and large shields (not very large, I will show you the shield), bonus against cavalry. dressed in chain mail armour, with helmets and hand armour (I will show the hellmets too). can be upgraded on metal armour on hands and arms. medium recruitment cost, low upkeep cost. medium morale
-Tadzreuli Swordmen (tadzreuli means same as templar and comes from word "Tadzari" (temple)) armed with straight and curved swords and long shields like normandian shields but georgian one is a little different (I will show it to you). heavy chain mail armour with metal armour on arms and hands (I will show you them). very good defence and attack. cant be upgraded. high recruitment and high upkeep cost. ecxellent morale.
-Torosani Swordmen (torosani means heavily armoured). armed with swords and medium round shields. heavy plate armour (I will show it to you). very high attack and defence. very high recruitment cost, high upkeep cost. ecxellent morale. the best Georgian dismounted unit. they should even never run from battle.
Missile
-Svanian Hunters (svaneti is georgian region). with no armour. armed with bows and knives. cant be upgraded. recruitable only in Georgian settlements.very low missile and malee attack. very low deffence. low recruitable and upkeep cost. low morale

-Torosani Lancers - armoured as Torosani axemen. armed with Lance+Sword+medium round shield. strong charge, very strong malee attack, strong defence. very high recruitment cost. high upkeep cost.
-Monaspa (this was the strongest Georgian regular force made by king davit IV rebuilder. this must be the bodyguard). armed with lance, straight and curved swords and heavy plate armour. with horse armour. very strong charge, very strong malee attack and defence. very high recruitment cost, high upkeep cost. ecxellent morale. this unit mustnt rout and ran away. this is the best Georgian unit.
so this is my unit list. if anyone has any question, I am ready to answer.
these are some pics about Georgian units, I will research some more in future.
here is khevsur swordmens' armour:
this is khevsur warrior.
this armour is for kartlian spearmen but helmet should be different. (metsikhovne spearmen should have also this kind of armour but with hand armour. helmet should be like this for metsikhovne.
I have seen this kind of armour in my village but I havnt taken photo. so I decided to paint that kind of armour. I am not a very good painter so...
this should be for Torosani units, only you should add leg armour to this.
and this one is for Monaspa, (left warrior, nor right one) only you should add leg armour. and also helmet needs a little remake.
one more thing. Georgian units shouldnt be very colourfull.
tadzreuli(cavalry, infantry) and monaspa should have shields like the shield that is on this pic below.
and this kind of armour should have Abkhazian Archers:
these are some weapons and armours.
Georgians should have these kinds of swords. Georgians had that kind of swords in medieval times too
this is Georgian hand armour
these are Georgian helmets:
