== Strategy ==
Although the Keshig is classified as a ranged cavalry unit, it uses the ranged units' promotion table. Depending on which promotions it's given, it can either be used as an anti-infantry weapon or a siege weapon, and its top-tier promotion will allow it to attack twice per turn. It also has Escort Mobility by default, so it's good at getting Great Generals, Battering Rams, and Siege Towers to the front lines of the battlefield in a hurry, especially when considering its can be further bolstered by the Ordu.
Be warned that anti-cavalry units will do extra damage to Keshig, so try to pick them off before they reach melee range or support your Keshig with melee units.
As the Keshig is a ranged cavalry unit, the -17 Ranged Strength penalty when attacking s and naval units still applies. It benefits from Genghis Khan's leader ability (+3 Combat Strength) only on defense, not on offense, and it can still capture enemy cavalry units.
