Dei Agminum (Armies of God) is an ambitious mod project aimed at becoming the premiere Medieval II Total War Crusades mod. Its origins can be traced back to the Broken Crescent Submod "Jersualem Rising". It will use the Crusades campaign from Kingdoms as a base but will in time morph into its own distinct entity. For now I will concentrate on revamping the Crusades campaign through this mod. This will include renaming existing units, settlements and factions with their historical names, introducing historically accurate buildings and new units and completely remaking unit art/UI (models, textures, banners, screens and etc.) and introducing other assets. For now these are the mod's main priorities.
The other most common polearm used by Outremer militiamen besides the spear is the voulge, which is essentially a long shafted axe that can make quick work of both infantry and cavalry. With such a devastating weapon, these militiamen make decent shock troops and should be tasked with assaulting enemies of all stripes. However given that they are simply peasants, lightly armored and lacking a shield, they will melt away during a sustained assault. Make sure they are supported well.
