Tactics[] They are slightly more armored and have higher skill values than veteran Swedish Pikemen. Mostly fielded by the Swedes, Scottish Mercenaries as a whole are somewhat redundant on their side but much more useful when occasionaly fielded by the Poles, offering a good melee soldier, a good pikeman, and a strong musketman - compared to standard Polish troops, they hit harder in melee and generally have more hitpoints, although at the expense of some skill values. 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.
