Dismounted Polish Nobles (M2TW Unit)
Dismounted, they make solid infantry armed with light spears.
Overview
As nobles, these men would of course ride to battle, but many would fight dismounted. With their light spears and mail, they are solid infantry, and useful for stiffening the comers who comprise the rest of the footmen.
Details
Dismounted Polish nobles can be relied upon to make up the backbone of Polish armies against infantry and cavalry. Unlike their mounted Polish Nobles, these units do not throw their spears. Dismounted Polish nobles have an unremarkable attack, but they make up for this disadvantage with high defense and morale than other early troops. While not necessarily inexpensive, since even small castles allow the recruitment of these troops, they are rather easily accessible.
