Re: Eastern Europe at War (EEaW) - now on GitHub!
Hi,
I had this question already when I played the addon many years ago.
I would like to ask it now for the sake of keeping things documented.
What does the unit name "Moloyec" suppose to mean?
I speak Ukrainian, Russian, Polish and other Eastern European languages and there is no word like this. The closest one would be Ukrainian "молодець" (molodec'), Russian "молодец" (malad'ec) which means "a good guy". In archaic times it could be used in the meaning "hero" too. This is my guess that this word was misspelled.

I guess they meant "Mołojec", here is the dictionary definition:

Young cossack or cossack soldier.
