    Moşneni Archers:


    The Wallachians are known for using archers to great effect in many battles. Bulgarian chronicles speaking of the battle of Rovine often quote that "the arrows of Wallachians blocked out the sun." Had it not been for these archers, it is likely that Wallachia would have been swallowed up by the many large powers surrounding it. Archery was the preferred way of fighting for the Wallachians, and archers often comprised 1/5 of the entire army. Around 4,000 Wallachian archers fought at Kosovo plain in 1448, while 6,000 fought at Golubac in 1428, Vlad Tepes used snipers and marksmen to thin down the Ottoman armies in their invasion in 1462, and Chronicler Wawrin affirms that Wallachians even used poison on their arrows. These are very capable archers, not to be confounded with the lesser-skilled ciobans. In battle, they wear chainmail and use good-quality composite bows. They often were the decisive force in battles, being able to whittle away the enemy before melee begins. Their equipment and training also allows them to join in hand-to-hand combat if need be, plugging any holes in the Wallachian line. In close combat they fought with short spears and partisans. (good morale, good stamina, long-range missiles, can hide in long grass)

    I wrote this up a long time ago and I may have either confused the two events or gotten the description second-hand from a source which (apperantly) was unreliable. Just for reference, I do know that he was shot by three arrows at the Battle of Baia when the Moldavians launched their attack on the Hungarian camp. Corvinus did siege Chilia at one point and was unable to take it, which probably is where the confusion comes from.

    Honestly, I feel like + + all at once. I'll proof-read those descriptions to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.

    thanks, your mod is excellent looking too.

    the team decided to make some kind of mini-preview with Wallachian units in a week or 2 time ( not the whole roster but chosen examples). so stay tuned.
