This video explains, though memes, how Sturgian recruits undergo training.
This Sturgian troop tree is true to vanilla game. The troop tree is much shorter now with only 3 tiers the first being the basic recruit who upgrades into a specialized unit and then a elite upgrade for the specialized unit. Cavalry units are one tier up than their infantry counterparts and are exclusively 5th and 6th tier for most factions. This captures the idea that cavalry are harder to train and more expensive to maintain. Realistic Battle Mod is also used for, well, realism.
