The ones that you had to remove because their creator (Reinnesance TW or smth mod) decided he didn't want you to use them :)

Oh you mean the italian wars. There were only a couple unite using them in the late era. And we already have high quality barded horses so there is no problem.

Should I delete the old(currently installed version) before installing new version ? Or I can install it without deleting the old one ?

The mod folders are completely separate with different names. No need to delete anything if you want to keep the old ones too.

Hello Wallachian! I have the 1.5 version of Tsardom and I was wondering if I install the 2.0 version, will I still be able to play my saved games from 1.5 version? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

They are actually separate mod folders with different names. So you can install both 2.0 and 1.5 at the same time. But the savegame in 1.5 can of course only be played in 1.5.

Wallachian great mod, I'm enjoying it very well.

Any chance Croatia's unit roster can be more authentic, I mean Bosnia and Serbia have more variety and seem solid.

Croatia's unit roster doesn't seem very authentic or genuine as Bosnia's or Serbia or even Ragusa, these areas were all apart of the kingdom of Croatia at an earlier stage before personal union with Hungary, doesn't that mean that Croatia should be able to recruit those same units.

How come Croatia cant build any seige weapons or trebuchet, only two types of bombards are available and also last question how come I can't recruit any merchants ?
