None Upgrade Cost None XP for Kill ? experience Ransom Value ? thalers Circassians (veterans) are veteran regional mercenary horse archers of the Crimean Khanate. Tactics[] Heavy cavalry usually found in very low numbers within Crimean armies, they are reliable tier-four horse archers armed with a Kalmyk bow and a saber, rivaling veteran Lithuanian Tatars, veteran Mirza Chambul, veteran Cebelu, and veteran Kalmyks in equipment, stats, and archery skills - their only downsides being slower horses and lacking a shield. Veteran Circassians are reasonably efficient at peppering enemy troops with arrows while on horseback but prone to being out-maneuvered by horsemen riding better mounts as well as becoming vulnerable when surrounded or being charged by troops armed with either lances or pikes, hence the best tactic is to support veteran Circassians with other lower-or-high-tier horse archers - while backed up by other ranged troops from afar - in order to increase their bows' rate of fire. Stats and Equipment[] Note: Troops have a set of default stats; at the beginning of a new game, these stats are randomly adjusted for each type of troop. The following is the default set for this troop as seen within the game code and may not reflect the specific stats you will see during actual gameplay. For more information, see troop stats.

The remnants still living in historical Circassia are better known - although a strictly collective term only used for some tribes- as the "Adyghe". The Karachay-Cherkess Republic - a federal subject of the Russian Federation - and its capital Cherkessk - not to be confused with Cherkassk) - are named after the Circassians. Azaq-kale, one of the towns they can be hired in in-game, falls in historical Circassia's territory.
