Cavalry

General Information

Light-armored units that are fast and flexible, they are ideal for performing raids and plunders.
On the down side they are expensive and slow to recruit.

Combat notes:

  • Cavalry (and Cataphracts) are very effective against archers. They seem to go after them first.
  • Cavalry are the only way to clear Abatis from a City's Fortifications.

    History

    Cavalry is composed of soldiers trained to fight on horseback. Because of their speed, they were
    often used for reconnaissance missions and hit-and-run type attacks on enemy installations and
    troops. Although warriors fighting from horseback with a variety of weapons date back to ancient
    Egypt, horse-mounted cavalry as we know it today began in the late 1700s. Under Napoleon, the

    cavalry became an elite force.
