Well, I play most with Lusos who only get slingers and Sweboz who (before v3) only had crappy archers and lack of armoured manpower so you had to spare them since you need the slots for infantry and zerg rush If you wanted to have any chance agaisnt civ factions. But I agree that units like Cretans or Roman are even worst to fight agaisnt. Is just that, at least on my oppinion indian archers should be good archers with decent melee skill, not shock infantry that happens to have bows. But I gess this is just my oppinion and I respect yours.
Again, I was meaning heavy cavalry at general, not only catas. They should be able to kill engaged heavy cavalry but not to survive a charge and after defeat it singlehanded at melee. I may be remembering wrong but I think they did this in old EDUs.2)Catas are not meant to fight in melee, they are hit and break hammer. i said this to show you that a smart person wouldnt leave his cataphracts fighting in melee he would pull them back thus , if u leave your catas fighting in melee against AP units ofocurse they will "kick the ass" out of them.
