Pikers

[Lasse Nielsen]

In the resume of the game (at paradox main page) they mention that you can hire swiss pikers. Maybe i'm wrong, but isn't pikers english slang for gypsies? Should they not be called swiss pikemen and not pikers? I know this is nitpicking, and maybe i'm wrong about the slang. but anyway one can allways rant...

I like nitpicking. They are called pikemen

 

[Lasse Nielsen]

Looking forward to this game - I love beer and pretzels games! But why wasn't it "hyped" more? this isn't the game they told us to expect, codnamede: "GH"?

In French the game is called La Guerre de 100 ans (the hundred years war).

We will increase our efforts inmarketing the game to get more action in here, at the moment most of the attention seems to be on Victoria.

Understandable, Victoria is a more complex game, there is so much more to discuss. COTN forum isn't really thriving either...

That's 'pikeys' though thieving gyppo bastards maybe should be a unit.

I am really looking forward to this game, as the 100 years war is a real interest of mine....


With regard to Pikemen, I also hope they include Flemish Pikemen and also Scottish Pikemen....

Scotland is not in the game.

They could still be used as merc units for the French faction......

Good idea. They should maybe pack up and go home in the event of Anglo-Scottish war.

Oh how I wish Scotland was in. If only so I could kick the f00k out of it Remeber 1643!

I am afraid you have got it the wrong way round Snuggles, you will find the Scots beating the s**t out of the English.

Oh flower o' Scotland, yada yada yada etc etc etc
