I have an idea for new polish unique unit.
Some info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosynierzy
Name: Kosynierzy (name does not have english equivalent; sometimes translated to "scythe-bearing peasant recruit" or simple "scythe bearers")
Tech: Military Science (along with Uhlans)
Cost: 40, -1 population (just like settler), no resource
Maintenance: 1 (They were peasants fighting for freedom and does not taken any pay.)
Formation: anti-cavarly
Combat:
Second unique ability (wasn't in my first idea but the longer I look at Autralia, the more I think it could be a nice feature): When player get DOW-ed and is currently in industrial era then few free units appear near the capital (what a nice coincidence it is Kraków
) without population drop.
===========================================
Some images (and more comprehensive than english wiki info, but in one complicated language
) can be found here: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosynierzy
===========================================
Uff... time to sum up.
Main idea (besides letting my own people to fight for their borders) is to create a cheap unit but not without side-effects of that cheapness.
Unique abilities would let feel the historical acurracy of the formation - untrained mob known of its bravery and efficiency when led by a right person.
So in certain situations they could
but due to requirement of great general to be effective they would not be "overused" in gameplay. I'd say "self-balancing".
Yes, I know there is no unit for Kosynierzy to replace, so they could be a little like civ V landsknechts:
===========================================
I hope you find this as fine and exciting
idea as I do and valuable enough to inlcude in your mod in more or less distant future.
Jadwiga would be very contented.

Spoiler Why? :
Maintenance: 1 (They were peasants fighting for freedom and does not taken any pay.)
Formation: anti-cavarly
Spoiler :
Combat:
- 47 (so they would not actually counter even for light cavarly, but wait for the unique ability!)
- -10 against infantry troops, beyond the normal one (in fact they should loose with musketmen)
- +3 against range units Spoiler :

ing in effort to ask for making it Summer Patch compatible. Trying to access Janisary in civilopedia (e.g. by right-clicking unit icon) causes CTD.
