    Although i do like sacred bands, they arent the best cavalry, I think good ole Praetorian Calvary are the best.

    Praetorians are too unrealistic for my taste (what? strong Roman cavalry?) so I prefer the Parthian cataphracts or Sassanid clibs.

    Whats the fastest cavalry that still can hit hard? That eliminates katafracts, so I think Sacred Band or Praetorian.

    They are realistic. The Romans used them to guard Rome and the Emperor (julii, brutii and scipii did not use them).

    Speed combined with power makes Praetorians the best, imo. Cataphracts can get bogged down too easily.
