Swiss data range

The 3 Swiss lists cover only the period from 1291-1359, 1400-1424 and 1476-1477, but should range from 1291-1500.

Also the pikemen are far too expensive.

Just to clarify - on the date ranges we do not have an exact match for the dates in the tabletop. There are too many possible combinations. We've picked dates where it gives you the full range of options. E.g. for Swiss you cannot pick a year of 1500 as this would have a subset of the options for one of the other lists.

Hope this clarifies.

Sure, but there are gaps anyway, even if the range of the Swiss range, in this case, is different, it should continuous, imho.
If the Swiss in the PC game only range from 1291-1477, the periods of 1359-1400 and 1423-1476 are missing.

The main question that one has to answer himself is, whether the data range have only informative character or could/should be used moreover for anachronism checks for D.A.G. games (see discussion on viewtopic.php?t=16164)
