Calling ALL CAVALRY COMMANDERS !

Thank you! I'm just suprised that this old thread's still getting people's attention. It seems there are a lot of cavalry fanatics out there and quite possibly even more!

I admit I may have come off as being a little biast against the Infantry commanders but... I mean't it all in the sense of friendly rivalry! eg. The Hundred Years war was all a friendly rivalry on what was better! Just kidding! ^_^ Yeah I'd just really like to see some competion's held between the two groups. It'd be good for both of us. We'd learn how to counter good infantry generals and they'd learn how to counter cavalry. I have the utmost respect for them and wish no ill will. They may play the game any way they chosse and I'm sure if I got on today they'd teach me a lesson or two. (I'd get em back though. O_- )

I totally agree with you. The Sipahi and Cossack Cavalry are excellent cavalry archers. Very versitile (Not to discount the great horse archers oth other factions like Hungary, Poland, Byzantium, and Egypt.) And of course it's not a horse archer, but the Camel Gunners could very well be the most dangerous missle cavalry unit. (Aside from Spanish Dragoons in Kingdoms which to my understanding are much better.) I have used Camel Gunners against the Timurids and the Mongols though. It makes your battles a lot easier. XD (Doesn't mean it's not fun. Nothing's better than sweeping across Eqypt for the sole purpose of defeating the only armies that can still present a challenge to you.)

As promised here is a link to the Horse Archers in Augsburg, which is near me. It is the link to the translated page…hope it works.

I was also wondering if anyone else actually has a horse. Mine is a gaited horse in keeping with what is/was desirable both then and now for me.

I don’t know how trotting horses gained such prominence but it sure makes for a hard ride.

Sorry, not posting pictures but she is a lovely 4 year old MFT (Missouri Foxtrotting Horse)
