Wondering what low level Horde units to add. I was thinking of a base level spearmen or Nubian so that they have some weak anti-cav for heavy cav. After all, nearly anyone can be taught to use a spear and these are roughly peasant level. Considering a second foot warrior unit with armour piercing missiles (either that or allow them to have crossbowmen, but not arbalesters.) I don't want to change the flavor of the Horde too much and want them to rely on cav archers, but they are pretty neglected as things stand. So my thought is to keep them mobile, but with a few options for low level defensive troops as well.

Also wonder if I should eliminate Khwarazmian heavy cav as a choice for them. Other than naptha throwers, what gunpowder/cannon should they be allowed? I can see restricting them somewhat, but giving them at least other simple siege weapons like catapults.

I need to take a look at Orda's mod...

Ideas, particularly with a historic bent, are appreciated
