Not one for ancient history, but I feel Hellenes has pretty much proven cav wern't really used for more than screening and guarding flanks until Medieval era.
But that wasn't my point. Please try to read my posts a little better. My point was you said cavalry was overpowered in real life. To which I responded very basically, nothing can be overpowered in real life. Why? Because it was my understanding that by the word overpowered one would be refering to overpowering a unit, in the game, so it was more powerful than it was in history.
So my point wasn't that cavalry wasn't strong in real life (though as Hellenes has pointed out, cavalry wasn't really very strong until Medieval times) but that something in history cannot be overpowered, it can on only be overpowered in a game.
