ps- it says to edit with a spread sheet for the buildings text so it might be easier with MS Excel

I want to make Companion cavalry more worthy of the title. since I don't want to change them too much, I thought I might just mod them to be a replacement for Greek Cavalry, rather than just an uncomfortable mix between Greek Cavalry and Cataphracts. I figure the easiest way to do this is to replace the Companions' mounts with the type of horse that Greek Cavalry, which appears to be the "medium horse". Anybody know if this would be a significant change? Also, what would be the effect of using "generals horse" instead?

Yeah, I changed it from heavy horse to generals horse, and it was more satisfying. Generals horse seems about the same as medium horse except for coloration, and generals was more aesthetically pleasing.

would also be nice for next patch. make the gen. horse trainable. with a nice name and look-a-like stats as companions, will make greece more powerfull
