First version of mercenaries! Actually vanilla system, renamed and reequiped. I make complete new mercenary system on the grounds of local specific units (Tatar Cavalry, Baltic Archers, Croatian Nobles etc.). at knights... In Bohemia in 13th. century was common mercenary knights (with his squires and serfs, fighting as footmans). Noble families use this profesionals into their military campaigns. Maybe I rename this unit into Heavy cavalry, but as I say, mercenary system will be complete reworked!

I don't think you understand the term mercenary. A knight that obey his oath and joins his lord with his squires etc. is not a mercenary.

A knight was a noble. Sergeants and mercenaries were proffesional.
Yes, of course... Přemysl Otakar II. use in his battles Mercenary Bavarian Knights fighting for money (mercede condukti). If I understand you (with my terrible english its hard for me, he he) mean the word "Mercenaries" in Mercenary Knight unit. This is no problem Change Mercenary Knights into Knights etc. But, as I say, Mercenary system will be reworked.
Baltic archers are only example. I dont start yet creating new mercenary system.

Then you don't have the right definition of knight. A knight and a horseman isn't the same thing.
Yes, I understand you, but I only rename mercenary in our non public beta.... Public release will be much more precise, dont worry. If you wish help, so I be happy. I´m thinking about 2 ways, how create mercenary system. 1) classical something like native, Light Infantry, Medium Infantry, Spearman, Swordsmen, Light cavalry, Medium Cavalry, Heavy Cavalry..... etc. or 2) specific units in every territory for example Tatar Horseman in Halysia, Croatian Axeman in Hungary, Baltic Warriors etc. So if you have some sugestion, than write it. Thanks!
Ok, but you must wait some time, we already knows actual bugs, but after than(when we fix it) we maybe need some help.Proie said:
Yes, this second way is much difficult. Need much more coding (if we not wish recruit Baltic Axeman in Venezia). This decision must make Resurr3ction, he is lead coder. But I think, so in first public beta we use clasical native like system. We have much more important thing to work now (Specialy ton of sceneobjectives).
hope this helps, 13th century arms & armor 
Nice, thanks! But this plate boots and leg armors was commonly used before end of 13.th century. We are in middle. But something are usable.
13th century eastern Europe
Yes, nice! We already use something similar. Some of this items are used in Rus 13th. century mod. Nice pictures, very inspirative.
Yes, tons of new items, every lord have unique equipment, some new troops etc... We must fix one huge sceneobjective bug and after then we plane release first public beta.
Bude to vyrovnané, ale..... drobátko silnější budou samozřejmě naši, POII. byl tehdy nejsilnější vládce a my mu chceme vzdát hold!
