Hajduk

The Hajduk are a light infantry unit common across the Balkans and surrounding areas. Operating as autonomous bands, these frontiersmen are often driven to the mountains by fiscal oppression, legal disputes, or a desire for military glory, specializing in the disruption of supply lines and the ambushing of tax convoys.
