Level 3 MIC if you mean these guys

Hippeis Xystophoroi (Greek Noble Cavalry)

After I thought a while about the +4 attack bonus I have to agree, that it is not necessary for KH. Nice to hear, that you like KH.

There is a additional point that speaks for KH, they have only one unit (if you leave the artillery out) that requires a level 5 MIC, Spartiatai Hoplitai (only recruitable in Sparte). All other "elite" units (Thorakitai, Thorakitai Hopitai, Epilektoi Hoplitai, Koinon Hellenon Phalangitai) only need a level 4 MIC.

And back to the Hippeis Xystophoroi, if you compare them with their counterparts, they are mostly slightly inferior, but you can recruit them (how you already said) nearly everywhere and you only need a level 3 MIC.
