spelling correction
Some of you might know that historically, Crimean Khanate had a profitable slave raiding in Eastern Europe. They did these raids without any official declaration of war. These raids resulted many wars between Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (PLC) and Ottomans. After Cossack Hetmanate (Zaporozhie) came into being, they clashed with Crimeans (counter raiding etc).
I believe that these Crimean slave raidings should be implemented as land raids. They should be only available to Crimea and Zaporozhie (if breaks free from PLC), just like only North African states and Knights can do naval raids. Similar to naval raids, land raids shouldn't require declaration of war and should grant manpower and ducats to Crimea & Zaporozhie. In return, these raids are only restricted to neighbouring non-Muslim countries (for Crimea) and Muslim countries (for Zaporozhie).
Moreover, Crimea and Zaporozhie are only restricted to cavalry for land raids, they shouldn't raid with infantry and/or artillery. It wouldn't make any sense in my opinion, because historically speaking, both countries heavily relied on the cavalry for warfare and raids (not infantry or artillery). Also, raiding distance should be limited like naval raids.
If a neighbouring country is raided by Crimea or Zaporozhie, that country should receive a "retaliation" casus belli.
I am aware that Crimea already has a looting speed National Idea, but still, this land raiding makes sense to me.
