GRIM AGE is a project, which has been in development for 3 years. Right now we're close to release of the first version of a mod. Our project is separated for two parts - single player (Ostland Campaign) and multiplayer sub-mod (Skirmish). We're gonna release Skirmish first, that is why all information you may find here is about it. SP part of our project will get it's own MODDB page when it's time is right.

ABOUT STATE TROOPS:
Every province and city-state in the Empire maintains its own army, trained and equipped at its own expense. These Soldiers are full-time, paid professionals, usually drawn from the Peasant or Burgher classes. They man the Empire’s fortresses, patrol the borders, and repel invaders. Most Soldiers of the infantry train with either the halberd or the firearm. Although dominated by the nobility, the Imperial Army also promotes based on ability and it is possible to rise through the ranks to a command position (though the bigotry of the ruling class makes this difficult).
Outside the theatre of war, the life of a soldier is often mired in dull routine and repetition. Soldiers awake before dawn, quickly pulling on their uniforms, taking up their weapons, and hustling to the staging yard for morning exercises and drills. Drills vary from unit to unit, but often end with a forced march with full kit and armour. After a quick break for breakfast, it’s time to get back to work. For those on duty, that means patrolling. For those off-duty it means more drills. Soldiers practice with their unit’s weapon for several hours each day. They rotate duties to keep any soldier from becoming too complacent at his post, usually working in two- to three-hour shifts. After a late dinner, soldiers not on duty have a few hours to themselves. Most often this is spent drinking, dicing, and womanizing. The only difference for a soldier during war is that instead of morning exercises and drilling he is fighting. Otherwise their schedules remain the same. Routine is the backbone of military life, and many soldiers find the regularity comforting.
The largest affiliation for any soldier is of course his military unit. Whether it is a local militia or the Imperial Army, that organisation is the soldier’s fraternity. It supports him, trains him, protects him, punishes him, and tends to him as necessary. Within each military organisation, however, there may be smaller groups, and these are more like real families.
Beyond the military itself, soldiers may join other groups based on their backgrounds and interests. Those who serve on a local militia are often part of the neighbourhood watch or the city council, for example. Soldiers with an interest in bars and pubs—owning them rather than just drinking at them—might join the Tapsters Guild, at least as associates. Many soldiers enjoy shooting clubs and hunting clubs, since this allows them to keep their skills sharp even during peacetime.

ABOUT CROSSBOWMEN:
Crossbowmen
Crossbows are not popular weapons in the Empire, though Tilean mercenaries are often recruited to augment the firepower of a Count`s army. Forgoing the armour penetration of handguns, crossbows do have an increased range to compensate. This gives them some tactical options where the extra range is potential more beneficial then the armour rate. This extra range can be used to match the range of their opponents missile attacks or to actually out range them.
Some Counts from the southern provinces retain units of Crossbowmen as part of their personal household troops.

Crossbowman [ABILITY]:
[Fast Reload] - Increase speed of reloading crossbow for short time. Cooldown.

By the way there are a couple of grammatical errors in the finished lines every now and then. For the already done stuff that is. Would be nice if you could get a guy good with English to maybe go over it and stamp out the bugs. The voice actor might have already fixed it though, he probably speaks English very well and are capable of making corrections where needed. :)

No worries there :) I always go through them several times and fix any typos and grammatical errors.
