Posted: Tue Jun 23, 2009 7:51 pm
Hi
here are my wish lists for the Indian lists
Mughal conquest and gujerati having access to firerms before others
Mughal conquest being similar to FOG Timurid list plus war wagons and arquebus and bombards, war wagons shouldbe able to advance slowly perpendicular to their long axis to allow tactics like Babur's at 1st Panipat and also allow cavalry to charge out beyond them
Most Indian armies should have lots of mixtures of troop types
Muslim cavalry mixture of LH Avge/ Sup Bw +- Sw Unarm/ Prot and Cav Avg/ Sup Bw Sw
Rajput Cav Sup Arm Lanc, Regular Hindu cavalry Arm Avge Lt Sp, Most Hindu Cavalry Poor Prot Lt Sp, Marathas mix of Avge LH and Cav, Bw*, Lt Sp
17th C Muslim cavalry can be Bw* as an option
Peasants Mobs, or Poor Undrilled Bw MF
Forest/ jungle tribes Poor LF BW or JV/ Lt Sp
Ghazis/ omanis/ rohillas/ infantry guards Avge/ Sup MF Prot/ Arm Imp, Sw or Off Sp or Avge LF Arquebus or musket, SW
Nagas/ nairs/ sadhus Avge/ Sup MF Prot/ Unarm Imp, Sw with option of Bw*
Regular troops Avge Prot/ Arm MF Bw or Sw
Matchlockmen Avge/ poor Unarm or Prot (Pavise) MF Arquebus or musket 17th C
