— Leo VI the Wise, Tactica Ch XIII While most factions do not rely on volunteers, the Muslim world is never short of volunteers eager to go on jihad for additional booty to enrich their families, for adventures to see the world, protect their loved ones and neighbours from barbarians, or - in some cases - to attain the proverbial dark-eyed virgins purportedly promised as a gift in the afterlife to them in the Qur'an. Nevertheless, regardless of what motivations they hold for service, Ghuzat Volunteers can be used to act as first-line units, and also have a terrifying speed for a militia unit.

abstract	— Leo VI the Wise, Tactica Ch XIII While most factions do not rely on volunteers, the Muslim world is never short of volunteers eager to go on jihad for additional booty to enrich their families, for adventures to see the world, protect their loved ones and neighbours from barbarians, or - in some cases - to attain the proverbial dark-eyed virgins purportedly promised as a gift in the afterlife to them in the Qur'an. Nevertheless, regardless of what motivations they hold for service, Ghuzat Volunteers can be used to act as first-line units, and also have a terrifying speed for a militia unit. These units are armed with a variety of weapons, and come clothed with white cloth caps and crude leather armour, which all augment to their own fighting spirit. Nevertheless, however, ghazis are still only militia and meant to operate in a defensive role - heavy cavalry will easily rip them apart, as will arrows fired by horse archers! — but nevertheless, should forces be needed in a jiffy, Muslim factions can do no wrong in calling them up to swell their ranks. Although it was said that the Golden Age of Islam occurred in the Mediaeval Ages, what is often overlooked was the fact that only various settlements comfortably cushioned from political violence did experience it, such as Iraq, Egypt and southern Spain. In the mountains bordering the lands of the Byzantines and the Turks or the Iberian frontier, or the deserts of Africa,it was another matter. There, many frontiersmen were often embroiled for various reasons in bloody raids and counter-raids against a slew of enemies, some being unbelievers, others co-religionists. This practice of raiding and counter-raiding, however, was not confined to Muslims living on the brink of civilisation. The same was followed by their Christian foes, albeit repackaged as razzie; chevauchées; cavaldagas; or sspanilé jízdy — the latter being Czech for "beautiful rides" which euphimistically referred to incursions by Hussite fanatics against their co-religionists, the results being no less brutal than what was practised on the borders of Islamic lands.
