Does anyone else find javelin cavalry (without underhand spears as secondary weapons) hard to use? I'm playing a KH as Sicily game where I've gotten around to conquering southern Italy. I really want to Tarantine Cavalry (and also tend to keep at least one unit of the low tier Greek Javelin cavalry around for realism) but I've never had much luck with them againt anything but elephants.
Maybe I'm missing something. I usually run them around the enemy's flanks to pepper them with javelins, but don't get many kills. Obviously charging with them is out, except int he most dire of circumstances. I've never had much luck using them against opposing cavalry, but that may be more a matter of my doing something wrong...
