Overview

Despite lances being vogue for armed cavalry in the west, these men continue to operate in the traditional Slavic style. Able to circle in front of their enemies and hurl their javelins at their enemies, these excellent troops switch to their swords for hand-to-hand combat. Mail armor gives them the same protection as contemporary knights.

Details

Polish Nobles are the rough Polish counterpart to the heavy cavalry of other European factions, but these men have unique distinctions. The most noticeable difference for Polish Nobles is that they soldiers can throw several javelins at their opponents, but they are still useful for prolonged melee against most other troops. This gives the armies of Poland additional flexibility with their deployment of cavalry. Since Polish Nobles can be recruited from the stables of castles as well as the castles themselves, a lot more of Polish Nobles can recruited in a shorter amount of time.
