Cost: 150 Florins, upkeep: 22 florins/year (3/8 florin per man).Stats: Charge 4, attack -1, defense 0, armor 2, morale 0, speed: fast for infantry.Their upkeep is very low so they make excellent, capable garrison troops, even for front line provinces. They are very useful for flanking, killing spearmen or just serving as cheap expendable troops. This is a unit with very high attack stats but weak defenses. Since they can only be produced in Scotland, all Highlands Clansmen start with +1 Valor. It might be worthwhile to conquer Scotland in the early game just to be able to train this unit type. Highland Clansmen are a useful troop available only in Scotland. Cost: 100 Florins, upkeep: 22 florins/year (3/8 florin per man).Extras: Small shield, +1 Valor if trained in Scotland, Uncontrolled.Stats: Charge 6, attack 5, defense -3, armor 1, morale 0, speed: fast for infantry.
They are good for flanking heavily armored enemies, provided they are supported by other units to keep them from routing.

Cost: 75 Florins, upkeep: 22 florins/year (3/8 florin per man).Extras: Armor Piercing, +1 Valor if trained in Lithuania, 25% cheaper for Novgorod.Stats: Charge 8, attack 1, defense -1, armor 1, morale -2, speed: average for infantry.Regions: Livonia, Lithuania, Norway, Novgorod, Poland, Sweden, Silesia, Volhynia.They are cheap and expendable, useful as fodder or to fill out garrisons. They are still weaker than most other units and should only be used in an auxiliary capacity, but they are fast and can be used to chase after routing infantry and to assault Archers. They are an improvement over Peasants and are somewhat useful in battle. Slav Warriors are an alternative to Peasants and can be raised in parts of Eastern Europe. Cost: 100 Florins, upkeep: 37 florins/year (3/8 florin per man).Stats: Charge 5, attack 0, defense -2, armor 1, morale 0, speed: fast for infantry.Regions: Prussia, Pomerania, Poland, Silesia, Bohemia, Lithuania, Smolensk, Chernigov, Muscovy, Moldavia, Volhynia, Kiev, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria.Their only useful attack is a charge, but even this pales compared to the same attack used by Spearmen. Their weak attack, weak defense, and poor morale make them a liability when facing better units, even other early units like Urban Militia and Archers. They are a good way to rapidly increase the size of your army in the early game, but it's a good idea to replace them with nearly any other unit type as soon as something else becomes available. Their advantage is that they are the first unit type available, and are extremely cheap to train and maintain. Peasants are the weakest and least useful units available. Cost: 50 Florins, upkeep: 37 florins/year (3/8 florin per man).Extras: +1 Valor if trained in Provence.Stats: Charge 4, attack -2, defense -4, armor 1, morale -2, speed: average for infantry.
