cavalary

[bloodwolwo]

its me or this units ar worse than farmers ?

[Kanjejou]

they have use but its a bit limited...

they are supposed to crush shield wall and swordmans.

btu since they suffer vs ranged they can't do their job well. at least not the first ones

[Nhat]

Its because you don't know how to use it properly, Cav purpose are only 2 main things , number one is to charge to their back, number two is to charge to their Ranged unit.

[Bags]

hitting the side or the back of another unit that is already fighting is devastating.

they are also good for intercepting other cavalry or fast moving units.

they are almost useless in siege battles.

very limited uses but they can do some work with practice. one of the hardest units to be effective with in my opinion.

mhm i flanked woodcuters strike them from back and what happend mu cav was cut down faster then i could say oh ♥♥♥♥♥. in my opinion they need rework, more hp or more units 18 is not enough

Cav is very strong in this game. you are just trash at using it. get good. seriously its good. stop being trash and saying this units sucks bc u suck.

[Skarth]

Cavalry is all about using charges, if you are not charging with them, you shouldn't use them.

[UNKN0WN]

dont jump into every group you see with cav be patient and look for a opening en then charge. Yesterday i killed 120 soldiers with just ONE charge. since then my opnion of cav has changed forever. no jokes

[Kanjejou]

they also can be used on world map to keep your speed and engage other player more easily.
sicn ei got quite a lot of cav kit i will build and try some out of training.

I have Dagger-Axe Lancers almost Elite. I can tell you they are one of the strongest units in the game on Heroic Age. Unlike Light Cavalry they have loads of Health and Defense. Fielding those bad boys nearly automatically wins you the battle :D

Cavalry is far from useless. I have no problem racking up over 60 troop kills with one well-placed charge. (Yesterday I charged into one big blob of enemies from behind, effectively killing 70 troops along with two players in the process.) However, a single pike-wall can end your charge immediately.

Having only 18 (by default) units means you need to be very careful with your troops. You can lose them easily to artillery, ranged units or enemy players hunting them down on horse.

look at me i charge with my 18man cav into a killbox with 5stacks muskets behind 3line shields.

srsly use your cav with brain and u will see they are worthy

[bloodwolwo]
