Tactics[] High level horsemen making up part of Cossack scouting parties and able to act as heavy dragoons, they are the Hetmanate's heaviest and most expensive troops. Lacking both the lances and armor of true heavy cavalry - wearing mail at best and cloth at worst - but carrying excellent firearms - the best Miquelet Carbine in the game among them - as well as riding light but fast Coursers, Zaporozhian Cavalrymen show reasonable power against all kinds of troops - as with all cavalry, however, they will quickly fall if surrounded by infantry. Zaporozhian Cavalrymen are best employed against any lighter cavalry - dragoon-alikes may shoot down their horses before they get in reach - and any vulnerable infantry lacking firearms and polearms. Being a lot weaker on foot than one would expect, be sure not to round Zaporozhian Cavalrymen up against ranged infantry with higher-power firearms - using a lure to aim enemy firearms and pikes away from them may allow an effective charge to commence, provided your lure isn't obliterated.
