    Such Georgian Medieval warriors are not known. It is late medieval combat and household weapon. I think anachronisms and fantasy are not good in a historical game. in medieval georgia in 10-13 th centuries were axes similar to two-handed Scandinavian axes, Medieval Georgian Warriors used Axes very rarely.

    You like this concept of axemans, but it does not correspond to the Georgian reality. It is the same as the Polish hoplites phalanx. I personally know the author of this axes photo - Zurab Chumburidze, he is an incompetent person. He thinks that Georgians have a curved sword ,Because the Hittite sword is curved. but georgians curved swords is medieval Nomadic influence

    No. Dark and natural colors are good. Sharp colors are not required. Georgian men 's clothes were not of sharp Asian colors.What do you think about white horses? Dark clothes and white horse contrast will be beautiful .There were white horses in Georgia.

    Msakhureuli and Metsikhovne 10th-13 th c

    These warriors look like each other. But there is a difference . Msakhureuli is servant lancer Cavalry . Msakhureui Has Kite Shield, High boots , Has more chain-mail armors and more helmets.

    Metsikhovne is Infantry warrior - Castle Guard . Metsikhovne has round shield . Metsikhovne has more padded armors and Less helmets.



    Dismounted Msakhureuli Swordsmen




    Metsikhovne
    Spearmens









    Metsikhovne

    I used these materials- From the book of military historian Mamuka Tsurtsumia. Do not use luxurious helmets for these warriors. not use Sharp colors for Metsikhovne and Msakhureuli

    This unit actually exists in current version, named Msakhureuli Light Cavalry, which is a rename from Broken Crescent Georgian Horse Archers

    Although in my current build this unit has been removed.

    Indeed. If Marbieli Cavalry is better then the name may be changed. But some descriptions who were Marbieli would be welcome.

    It hasn't been removed (or you mean a personal build)

    @umbracatervae - I will not do anything with the Georgian recruitment until we've got that Glekhi unit. Then, if @kostic would add it to the roster, I'd review the recruitment to include Foot Aznauri and Glekhi.
    Besides, I don't think there's a space for more Georgian units.

    Msakhureuli- These warriors were not peasants. These were the servants of the feudal lords, the professional warriors - the shock cavalry. Which constituted the majority of cavalry in the medieval Georgian army. They had medium armor. These warriors were not light cavalry

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 










    As for the Marbieli cavalry - these were peasants, often not involved in wars, but used when needed. Please forget - broken crescent, because there are huge historical inaccuracies and chaos. I think I deserved to be believed because I did a tremendous job. And I showed that great knowledge about the medieval Georgian army that no one here knew before me.

    Chill, i don't mean to disagree with you (if that meant for me too)

    Indeed, Broken Crescent roster is somewhat inaccurate. But can't be denied that those roster are pioneer of whole Georgian roster. Without that there's probably won't be any correction like you did.

    Your roster is nice indeed, but that need more unit slots which already said by Jurand, there's no more spaces for that much units. Need at least 17 unit slots for one faction based on your roster, and that only for early era.

    In my submod, based on my personal build. I'm gonna make the whole roster will be melee-oriented. Like you said before that Georgians mostly relied on Kypchaks to do archery job, and the Georgians prefer to face the enemy in close combat. So i'll keep most melee infantry and cavalry, while discarding all horse archers and only save a few ranged units mostly a low quality ones.

    But i may change my mind in the process.

    I just know English poorly and sometimes I speak rudely ,because I want to explain everything to you. Forgive me for that . I was helped by my friend. He speaks English well



    I have been studying Georgian military history for years and observe every detail under a microscope. I limit myself to fantasies and only agree with dry reality. Yes broken crescent was the first. However, it is not useful for assessing historical accuracy. Because the Georgian roster is mostly a fantasy and the tools of the 10th - 18th centuries are intertwined. You and I are creating a very precise army and that's very good.


    Georgian cavalry was a heavy shok cavalry. The crushing blow of the Georgian cavalry with large spears was known in this region. But they found it very difficult to fight against nomadically fighting Turks archers Cavalry, and that’s why they hired a Kypchaks Archers cavalry. Georgian cavalry started fighting with bows only in the 13th-14th centuries after the Mongol invasion. But they did not fight as nomads. Their main weapon was still a spear.




    Can you tell me exactly how many units there should be? I'm thinking about which one to throw out. I think we should just hire a light Kypchaks Archers cavalry first. I also think there is no need for Marbieli cavalry, because during this period the peasants very rarely went to war, especially since the horses were owned only by the rich and their servants. Also, Georgians were not Archer horsemen. Finally, I would like to say that Georgians did not have light cavalry. They did not have a shortage of iron and high quality weapons. They were also warlike people and knew martial arts very well. The main drawback was the feudal system and disorganization.

    How many units slots can Kingdom of Georgia have? What is the maximum limit?




    I made a list, according to priorities. We can deleted :



    1.Mercerany Kypchak Horse Archers- This unit will not be in the slot. But it will be possible to hire them in the Kingdom of Georgia


    2. Marbieli Horse Archers - Because in the 12th century peasants did not fight with horses and Geogians have only shock cavalry .because of this, The Georgians settled the Kypchaks in the Kingdom of Georgia. But some peasants owned horses and loved to hunt with bows.


    3. Dismounted Monaspa Horse Archers - These were the cavalry. Their duty was to move quickly to any region . This army was created by the king David-IV for this. But I think elite archers will be good.




    4. Chukhchi Axemans infantry - These were the personal Bodyguards of the king(lords). They guarded king(lords ) everywhere. These were horsemen in General battle - However, the king(lords) also needs personal guards in the palace. in the sources these warriors are not mentioned to as infantry. They are mentioned to as the bodyguards . Achukhchi ( Chukhcherakhi, Chukhcharkhi) - This is the commander of bodyguards, Chukhchi - this is bodyguards unit of king(lords)



    5. Glekhi Swordsmens - Peasants with Tsathi. I think it is necessary to be. really do not want this unit to delete. Because in georgian the sources these warriors are mentioned as peasant warriors - who fight with these weapons. I do not want to delete this warriors. deleted this warriors - only if it will be very necessary.






    Other warriors I think are necessary.


    The reduced unit roster looks like this. There are 16 units in total. in high era, 1236 -1350 We will remove Monaspa lancers and horse archers, We will add Aznauri and Msakhureuli horse archers , Also add Dismounted Aznauri Horse Archers.

    SSHIP is at the hardcoded unit limit. It is not possible to add more units without removing others.

    Several of those as described seem very, very similar to generic units already present - Glekhi Archer & Peasant Archer, Metsikhiovne Archer & the generic european Archer unit, Dismounted Msakhureulii Swordsmen & Light Men at Arms, Chukhchi Lancer & the byzantine bodyguard - and could possibly be represented with generic units textured appropriately.

    I'm always baffled when I read this response though, I remember there are a lot of units all over the place in terms of historicity, ugly old models (compared to the newest added), and especially, there are a lot of super late game units (Late musketeers and pikemen, for example, well into the XVI century, leftover from SS6.4 I think). Not a critique of anyone's work, just aware that it could be pending work. (In fact, from the value side of things, I'm actually excited for it, since imo. SSHIP has improved so many things until now that I could've not even have thought of, while others like the EDU, which are more obvious, still remain as an open possibility, with various good revisions posted in the forum).

    Georgia is one of the factions that are a unique addition to the SSHIP map, with a very distinctive culture and geographical location, personally, I would love to see a very well fleshed out roster for it someday.

Not a critique of anyone's work, just aware that it could be pending work. (In fact, from the value side of things, I'm actually excited for it, since imo. SSHIP has improved so many things until now that I could've not even have thought of, while others like the EDU, which are more obvious, still remain as an open possibility, with various good revisions posted in the forum).

    Georgia is one of the factions that are a unique addition to the SSHIP map, with a very distinctive culture and geographical location, personally, I would love to see a very well fleshed out roster for it someday.
    Well i was actually thinking on making a list of units in SSHIP that could be removed , then repurpose the free slots for actual hisotrical units.

    One such units are the Peasants and the Levy Crossbowmen ( peasant crossbowmen are the same thing so definetely a clone unit) as much as other , and they can add more unique rosters. However, the work is monumental , so it is taken slowly

    @Nemesis: this table might be helpful for your. There might be a few changes (and the prices of the knights were introduced) but in general this is a right list.

    @Sindathar, @Fishmalk - I think you're actually both right, up to a point.
    - there's little space (perhaps 10) to introduce new units;
    - there're many late era units indeed, but given that the SSHIP should last till the gunpowder era, we shouldn't remove them outright.
    - Georgia has so many unique units that I wouldn't add many more.

    It was a medieval Georgian army.The number of these units is similar Of broken Crescent. in late era we add only svanian crossbowmens. However if we want periods, new units must be created according to the periods. We must protect the organization of the Georgian medieval army, We need to create an appropriate roster. Otherwise, we will create uncertainty. I do not know English well and find it very difficult to explain everything.

    How many units do you want to delete and what is the reason for this? I want to know the future. Because I want to work exactly. So I can not concentrate
