lmao how did lazy end up trapped in a box av heard of jack in the box but thats just taking it too far u open the box what do u find a squadron of angry horsemen with big swords

Actually, this causes so much confusion because:

In vanilla:
Light cavalry = hussar, uhlan etc.
Heavy cavalry = cuirassier, oprichnik etc.
Ranged cavalry = dragoons, war wagons, cavalry archers etc.

In TAD:

Light cavalry = Ranged cavalry = dragoons, war wagons etc.
Heavy cavalry = cuirassier, oprichnik etc.

But the thing is, there nothing called heavy cavalry in vanilla, there they are called "hand cavalry"

And hand cavalry is all cavalry melee units.

That's what causes confusion imo.

Light cavalry was never the same as Ranged cavalry, it's only that people misunderstood the difference between Light cavalry and Heavy cavalry.

i think there was a big discussion about this earlier on in the thread and aaryn gend suggested there was a lot of factors determining the catagory the cavalry unit fell under

hussar ulan kürassier oprichnik =heavy cav=hand cavalry
light cav=ranged cav
the same on vanilla imo, on vanilla only skirms (xbows etc.) are light infantry and on tad they are not cause light inf in tad is coyoterunner, tigerclaw, etc. thats much more wierd

[quote=""cheesehat""]Hussar: Light Cavalry armed with cold steel (no, they are not classified as Light Cavalry, guys with arms, freezing dudes and fifteen ton metal statues)

Tags: Cavalry, HEAVY CAVALRY, hand cavalry (there was a big long dam thread on this topic on agecomm a year ago roughly at this time when i was first starting and I swear to god I flammed my little unfit and cholesterol absorbed heart out that I thought Hussars were LC...I changed my mind once I saw TAD)

All ES decided to do in this game in TAD was make anything on a horsey that couldn't shoot HC and everything on a horsey that could shoot LC. I am honestly surprised how Game_Freak got to Major General if he thought Xbows>Cossacks (the counter actually says 2x Ranged cavalry if u hover ur mouse over it, not 2x light cavalry)

And the skirmisher example isn't quite accurate.

If you hover your mouse over the Bonus vs. Cavalry (the one with the hoof, not the one with the hoof and an arrow) you will see for different units it says different things.

On RANGED CAVALRY it says "3x Bonus vs. Hand Cavalry" (anything with a 'hand cavalry' rag falls under this catagory)
Pikes, Musketeers, etc "2x Bonus vs Cavalry, anything with 'cavalry' tag falls under this"
Yumi Archers, Skirmishers, Abas gun/Grenadier, etc "0.8 vs HAND cavalry, 2x vs. LIGHT cavalry <no it does not say ranged cavalry, don't ask why>)

But seeing as the terms 'light cavalry' and 'heavy cavalry' are not used in the counter system, we can replace them with 'ranged cavalry' and 'Hand Cavalry' respectively.

Case Closed











But hussars, Uhlans and Cossacks are still technically Heavy Cavalry (same tags as Gendarme)

A simple counter system:

Anything on a horse that can shoot < Skirmishers
Anything on a horse that can't shoot < Anything on a horse that can shoot
Anything NOT on a horse and has a range of 12 or less < Skirmishers
Skirmishers < Anything on a horse that can't shoot[/quote]




curtosy of cheesehat its in page 2 of this thread

Nothing like going into a marriage with a kill/death ratio like this...

Ahahahaha, Taunt 19

Yup, Abus >>>>> Sepoy.

Yes, I know that, but it's still funny that he continued to push with sepoys instead of falling back.

He is a major after all.

well drew u may be able to kill like satan spawn but u'll lose the house to a whole load of crazies sure enough u'll kill them afterwards but hey
