Poor Cossack Pikemen (veteran) are the upgraded militia pikemen of the Cossack Hetmanate.

Tactics

Even as veterans, Cossack Pikemen are still cheap but inefficient fighters, so they should not be relied on heavily. Letting them attack directly is not advised, because they can be killed by a single bullet or die fighting enemies in melee. As with other pikemen, they are best used protecting ranged infantry against enemy cavalry.
