I am really surprised about the enormous amount of resources u need to make cavalry. Why do u need 40 horses to make 1 cavaly, where all other units just need 10 weapons. The only good thing is the advantage of first strike, but if u send cavalry to a camp, its a certain death for all cavalry. And that really hurts. Only 5 hp and 5-10 damage...really why??
Can anyone explain why the cost is so extreme high and the strengh so extreme low? This doesn't make any sense if u compare it to all other units.
I would say: make the cost of cavalry 10 horses and 10-15 beer to get a better balance and/or add a new unit (say "heavy cavalry") and make them a bit more expensive (about 20 horses) and a bit stronger. The cavalry we now have is less than light cavalry, don't u agree?
