So we are adding several factions:

Abbasids[edit source]

  • Fedayeen [2]
  • Bedouin Archers [1] => Dromedaries [2]
  • Spearmen [1] => Spear Jund [2] => Foot Asakir [Republic only]
  • Ghuzat Volunteers [1]
  • Caucasus Huntsmen [1] => Composite Bowmen [2]

Others?

  • Camel Raider [Republic only]
  • Bedouin Horse Retinue [Republic only]

Mercenaries:

[1] Kipchak Nomad [2] Caucasus Mountain Men [3] Repeating Crossbowman; Super Bombard; Mercenary Swordsmen

Units Ubba wants added:

  • Caliph's Muharib (Heaviest infantry the Caliphate has: with sword, shield, and heavy armor. Handpicked by the Caliph, these are his champions. Expensive but effective.)

These units are reflected elsewhere.

  • Mameluke Muetad (Inexpensive, strong raiding cavalry armed with swords) ,
  • Mameluke Rami Alisam (Mounted Camel riders armed with bows - a unique anti-archer unit as well) , Caliph's Muharib

Ubba also mentioned the following:

Arabs, Persians, Italians and Armenians are present in this roster. However we have covered them - the only unit worth adding to this mod would be Rizicos from Sicily. And possibly, Vaccari albeit as a merc unit of some sort. Dunno from where or how.

What about low-tier medium units?

We have the following units knocking around: Militia, Swordsmen, Conscript Swordsmen,

  • Give Conscript Swordsmen to all factions as a default, while converting the Fyrd to a nBritish unit.
