Cavalry in Europa Barbarorum 2

I would like to congratulate the team for the way it really brought cavalry down to size in Europa Barbarorum, and on how it really rebalanced Family Member Cavalry (No Equites Consulare slaughtering my Suldoros :laugh4: ) even if cavalry are still devastating at least Heavy Infantry aren't garunteed a quick death when not in sieges so here is my question.

Will the team cure Medieval Total War 2 cavalry the same way it cured the Rome Total War cavalry?

And again great job at making infantry at least viable in Europa Barbarorum

I have no doubt that EB2 team will balance cavalry in a rational way. However, I'm wondering whether they will fix the "knights on steroids" problem. MTW2 cavalrymen animations were rather poor.

Don't worry, cavalry in EBII will be nothing like the ridiculous "one charge destroys all" things you got in M2TW.

How uncomfortable would it be to cavalry charge without a saddle and no pants, Bobbin?

omg that made my day

Is your signature a bad joke? If you are so patriotic about bavaria than why did you write it in Hochdeutsch. ^^
Doesnt make any sense to me. ;)

@Topic
I hope we see less medieval style uberlancers like in EB 1...^^
Today a carthagenian bodyguard smashed through the sarrisai of my chaonion agema killing 20 of them in the charge... I was kind of surprised^^ Before I had only made that experience with pahvlan cataphracts-

BTW will we get the battle system preview? It would be nice to see how EB combat is different from MTW2 Vanilla.
