i don't think england should get the SAS. england isn't a modern civ in the game. england hasn't been independent for a long while now. the SAS really are a british thing, not english. england should have their strength during the middle ages, if it were britain, then things would be different. but it's not.

Why don't the Poles have special unit- the Maceman? The Polish macemen were infamous for their ability to crack open the armour of their Teutonic and Lithuanian enemies. Of course they used the more blunt maces with pointed tips that could crack 'em open and then shell out the meat.

Also, on Conquistadors, if you gave me and 200 other people- Any People!- with metal weapons and some loud noise makers (all their guns were good for) and I could take out a whole army of Incans infected with Smallpox (just recently too) with only stone weapons and no armour. Horsies help too.
The Spanish unique unit should be the Jesuit warriors- elite highly trained knights that were highly successful in the 30 Years War and in the Bourbon armies during the French civil wars in the 1500's.

About Yugoslavia(former) UU unit:
First i think it's much better sutes Serbia (as a reprezent of South Slovens) but anyway. In that case it should be "Serbian Draft Soldier" from WW I. Those units were most important parts of wining the war aginst AustroHungarian Monarhy and after that creating a new united country (Yugoslavia). They were move very fast acrose Albanian mountains to Greece and from Thesalonica open a new south front. So it could be Rifleman (4.6.2). And it could sutes Yugos. as for Serbia.
If you still want Partizan o.k. Than take Gerila (6.7.1) or insted infantry (7.10.1).
That was my opinion, if you (or anyone) don't agree, no hard feelings.

I've just made my first mod. An european one. Some ideas I might have got from others, some are my own. I have added a lot of cities and some leaders to the allready present european civs. Changed the units a bit.

Civs added (overwriting existing non-european ones)

Norway
Turkey
Spain
Poland
Yugoslavia
The Netherlands
Portugal
Sweden
Denmark
.

I agree with what calgacus wrote. Too many scandinavian nations. A good way of solving the problem is to make Norway and Denmark one country as Finland is incorporated in Sweden. Norway has not been a nation of it's own for many centuries but so have Sweden and Denmark. Then Denmark could get the Berserk because the norwegian and danish vikings were more aggressive. There were not many swedish viking raids in west Europe, they went to the east.

So they can get the berserks but PLEASE change the UU for Sweden. I totally agree with NapoleonXIII about the Karolin(erna). They should be a cheap musketman or medieval infantry. Another UU for Sweden wouldn't match with history.

Janissaries are NOT just rifle units! Microsoft is not historically infallible. They only first became know to Europeans when muskets were around.

Janissaries were actually just warriors collected from Christian and Jewish towns in the Ottoman Empire as a tax. They gie the empire a pre-determined number of children per household and then the Ottomans trained them to be the elite units of the Ottoman sphere by eliminating their sense of self and making them killing machines. They were around from 1000 AD until World War One.

Janissary didn't refer to troops, it referred to a SYSTEM!


P.S. Eliminate Norway as a country because it was passed around between Denmark and Sweden like a blunt at a Willie Nelson Party.
