Paladins of Darton

Researcher: Rohnen Veritas
As a warrior:
10 men : 280CS (C 25% M 97% T 75%) CS/Man: 28
20 men : 480CS (C 21% M 97% T 75%) CS/Man: 24
30 men : 672CS (C 21% M 97% T 75%) CS/Man: 22.4
As a warrior/cavalier:
9 men : 405CS (C 100% M 100% T 90% D 6%) CS/Man: 45
16 men : 528CS (C 78% M 99% T 82% D 0%) CS/Man: 33
34 men : 805CS (C 58% M 91% T 78% D 4%)CS/Man: 23.66

Cohesion seems to be a major factor in CS calculation.
My particular unit seems very fond of the ladies they gained 12 morale and 9 cohesion after 2 hours.

Behaves like infantry on open field. I suspect they have a slight charge bonus when in wedge formation and increase their damage slightly every round.

High hit rate archers in all battles, never entered the melee preferring to act as archers. High hits per man, decent defence: between 26 and 37 hits per casualty.

23 men : 504CS (C 22% M 84% T 85%) 25 CS/man

Seems just like a regular infantry unit when fighting in an open field (Battle in Aestus, Battles in Leibo). Strong in defense (cca 45 hits per casualty)

Honour and Recruitment

Researcher: Erazem Luegg
As can be found on Honour and Recruitment page the general formula seems to follows:
Number of men = Factor * Honour + Offset

Unit type	Factor	Offset
Infantry	1.5	22
Archers	1.5	22
Cavalry	0.5	7
Special Forces*	0.5	7

^* Suspected, will be tested in the future.

My unit (max 23 men, 32 honour) has the same limitation as the formula for Cavalry (23 = 0.5*32+7), so it is reasonable to conclude the formula is the same. This will be easily verified with a different honour. We should also check if Cavaliers get additional allowance as per cavalry.

Confirmed: 26 men = 0.5 * 38 honour + 7
