New PTW Unique Units

[Ribannah]

Ages ago I suggested the Camel Rider for the Arabs. As the game is (no Camel resource) it could be a replacement for the Horseman without the resource requirement.
Would be real funny otherwise if you needed Horses to build Camel Riders.

I just got through rereading The History of The Crusades so I will have to offer the following unit for the Ottoman Turk UU - Mounted Archer it would have a A/D/M of 4.3.3 and would replace the Knight on the tech tree. Kilij Arslan used fast archers on horseback to defeat 3 Crusader armies in 1101 and it was the most used type of unit by the turks & arabs during the Crusades.

I agree , there are enough europeans already in the game (romans,germans,french,britons,russians,ottomans,g

Im not sure but i think that the romans and greeks are europeans. Not that it matters even w/o them there are too many. Im just glad they put the vikings in.

I think that they classified the Romans and Greeks as "Mediterranean". I bet that the Carthaginians will be in the same category.

The UU for the Ottomans should be the Janisarry. Janisarries were the children of Christian slaves and were raised as devout muslims. They were separate from the rest of the army and were usually under the Sultan's direct command. Janissaries also were the first troops in history to be issued official uniforms. The Janisarry unit could replace the musketeer in the game.

Imo, ottoman UU should be the mameluke horsemen, deadly in close combat and charging and capable of archery from a horseback too.
