>>741807063>>741807204I thought nomadic horsemen were a threat until widespread firearm adoption
Why no cossackcore games?Would make for an awesome red dead or soulslop setting
>>741808913nah they got fucked pretty hard as soon as they hit the part of europe that had a population density above 1 hohol per km2
>>741808913Pavise crossbows really fucked their tactics up.
>>741806420because you bred them that way for 10.000 yearssame with humans self domesticating them into fat gooners.

>>741807063mongols beat teutons and hungarians and only turned back because they deemed western europe to be too poor and underdeveloped to worth invading, and ofc the terrain was also unfavorablehungarians had some later successess against some later mongol raids, but these were much less organized armies than mongols were known for during their peak.

>>741809236>>741809556>they got fucked pretty hard as soon as they hit the part of europenah, they genocided half of hungary's population and won every major battle against them (including other european troops present), at least in the first invasion, at which point they turned back only because they realized europe is piss poor and there are too many mountains in the wayit was only the second invasion where they fumbled, but that was done by the golden horde and it was doomed from the start as their entire logistic was shit, they had no food, and ofc hungarians have also built a lot of fortifications since then and also went through a bit of a civil war that actually came in handy as they had a lot more soldiers around otherwise mongols during their peak had some insane logistics and mobility, every soldier had around 5 mounts to change during battle, 3 bows for different distances, (including large ones to fire from foot), tons of arrows, the best siege engineers and better steel than europeans had
