Poland is a catholic faction, located in central europe, north of Hungary.
Its position gives neumarus advantages, firstly, its fairly secure, with only a border with Hungary, which is mainly mountains, at the campaigns outset, secondly, the Vast and empty Steppes are to Polands east, and may also provide the faction with a good source of Papal favor points, as only a small percentage of people in these lands begin as catholics.
Poland is clearly a cavalry power and has a good mix of all types of cavalry, including Strelzy, early mounted crossbowmen, Polish gaurd and Lithuanian cavalry horse archers. This puts the poles at a clear advantage over some of its neighbours that dont have that many spearmen in their armies, for example, Denmark and Hungary, though to a lesser extent.
Polish infantry is weaker than the cavalry avaliable, Although in the early game, it is still stronger than the Holy Roman Empire and its worth mentioning that Lithuanian archers can deploy stakes to deter other factions cavalry.
Due to charging bugs, its not advisable to play as Poland without the 1.2 patch, due to them relying on their heavy cavalry to with battles.
