Byzantine Unit Tree Improvement Suggestions
Hey Gigau,

I just wanted to suggest improvements to the Byzantine units I gave you years ago.

Current Name -> New Name

Toxotai Archers -> Tzakones ("Laconians" From the 1200s-1400s, a lot of troops were recruited from the Morea and served most notably as Marines, Fortress Garrisons, and as a Guard Unit)

Hippo-Toxotai -> Massagetoi ("Alans" more or less. A lot of Alans served in the 1200s/early 1300s)

Skoutatoi -> Megaloalligitai ("Grand Allagia" i.e. amalgamated units of soldiers from each of the three major remaining regions - Thessalonike, Strymon, and Vizye. Disappear with the Ottoman conquests.)

Pronoiarioi can stay the same.

Latinikon -> Stratiotai ("Soldiers." In this era it referred to what used to be called Pronoiarioi, and were forces of well-equipped feudal landholders and their retainers.)

Stratiotai -> Ianitzaroi ("Janissaries" i.e. an initially a mid-14th century Catalan mercenary company that became a Guard Unit of light but well trained sword/saber-armed cavalry, named after a Berber tribe.)

I will share and discuss this with the team.
Thanks, these are all based on Bartusis's "The Late Byzantine Army."
