I have to say that this is true as the game is now... My personal opinion is that this is a fallout from how much money is available to the player. The cavalry units are in general superior to infantry units, though there are always exceptions. Cavalry are faster and harder hitting then infantry, so equal or near equal numbers of cavalry to enemy infantry mean that the cavalry should win unless stupidly lead as the cav can either overpower units vunrable to cav attack or out manouver units that can defend themselves from cavalry...

So the fact that a huge cavalry army can be just as easily put together as a huge infantry one, and that the huge cavalry army does not threaten to bankrupt the player is at the heart of the problem for me.

Personally I am considering modding cavalry units to be more expensive both to train and especially in unkeep... I am also considering a general morale increase across the board to keep units in the fight longer which is always bad for cavalry once they get bogged down...
allready did it

here's the layout i used.

training cost
+100 for light cav
+150 for medium cavalry
+200 for heavy cavalry

Upkeep
+100 for light armoured cav
+150 for medium armoured cavalry
+200 for heavy armoured cavalry

Training time
all cavalry + 1
