Cuman/Kypchak/Pecheneg Influence In Khuzait Faction

Users who are viewing this thread

While watching the captain mode  videos I realised that some of the Khuzait troops(lancer class of the cavalry branch to be exact) wear Cuman armors.
WHO were the Cumans ?

''The Cumans (Polovtsi) were a Turkic[1][2][3][4]:116 nomadic people comprising the western branch of the Cuman-Kipchak confederation. After the Mongol invasion (1237), many sought asylum in Hungary,[5] as many Cumans had settled in Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey before the invasion.[6][7]:2[8]:283''

Edit: I think I should have wrote helmet instead of armor.
