    But you know what Gendarme and Coureur des Bois means Wink

     

    (but me 2 lol)

    what about cuirassier? what does that mean?

     

    two more, did you know that caçador(the port's skirm) mean hunter

    and that the guerreiro(royal musketeer upgrade for ports) means warrior

    I knew about Caçadore (because that's what Port vililes say when they hunt). I had guessed Guerreiro.

    Cuirassier means someone with a Cuirasse, which is amor if I'm unmistaken.

    actually "caçador" doesn't have an "e"

     

    BTW, now i saw that i wrote caçador with "ss" in the place of the "ç" Indifferent at least my grammar teacher haven't seem thisCoolStick out tongue

    and as far as my spanish goes, Lancer is someone armed with a spear, or a pike so... lancer could mean pikeman(but pikeman is translated to piquero, i think)

    Lancer is just a guy who holds a lance, just like a gunner is a guy who holds a gun.  A cuirass is a piece of armor that covers the abdomen

     Do you know that Jaeger(Jager in modern German/Dutch) means Hunter too...

    actually its jäger Wink zweihänder literally translates as two hander and doppelsoldner I think means "double Soldier" since they were payed twice of what landsknecht were pain and landsknecgt means land knight literally i believe czapka is from the hat prussian cavalry wore.

    lol i think es got lazy and just decided to name skirmisher units "hunter" in there native language also im startng to notice how close german and dutch words are

    for me i've always thought German and Dutch were similar languages, but as i can't understand them, i wasn't sure

    one thing i noticed too is that old(very old) English has many things that look like German too, and the root of some words are similar, one example i noticed is "she"(in English) and "sie"(in German)
