Grenzers: Austrian border troops, mostly Croatian in
anscestry. Mix of light infantry skirmishers and
light horse. Literally "Borderer". Greek word is
"Akritai." Between Scotland and England there was
also a "Borderer" culture which provided "Border
Horse" which were some high-quality but pretty damn
undisciplined troops. Had a tendency to decide they
had done enough for that battle, and go loot the
baggage train.

Well, I generally don't count the PA as a
"weapon". It's cargo. It's your house rule, you run
with it.
