Greek Stradiot

===Overall strategy===
Stradiots - somewhat antiquated but still highly effective light cavalry. They are in essence what serves for light cavalry among the Spanish, Austrian and Italian factions. While they can be trained in vast numbers very quickly, their train speed is curtailed by their immense wealth cost - so you should think carefully when intending to raise these units for the purpose of making war. Unlike other mercenary cavalry units, Stradiots are raised not at a Castle or Fort, but instead are raised at a Drill Square. Raise their level to that of Hussars as soon as you reach the Mercantile Era — these units are not cheap and will easily deplete your Wealth very quickly.

====Notes====
These units are not armed with javelins unlike in Rise of Kings. Instead, they are primarily sword cavalry, and function as such, until they are replaced by Hussars.
For Greece in Forge of Storms, the Stradiots retain their nomenclature and stats but have a new uniform based off the Sacred Band.
