== Strategy ==
The Cavalry is the strongest mounted (i.e., pre-armored) unit in the game. Armed with a short carbine and depending much more on mobility than their predecessors, they are devastating against melee, ranged, and siege units.
Use them to destroy Musketmen and then break through the enemy's lines with their ability to move after attacking. Cavalry are quite vulnerable to the mounted-unit-killing Lancer, thanks to their Formation promotion as well as a penalty against other mounted units. When considering which of these two mounted units to build, remember that Cavalry upgrade into armored units (Tanks in vanilla and Landships in the expansions), and will thereafter require to remain at full Strength.
