Carabineer
- The Enlightenment Age brings the Carabineer into the fold. Fiercer on the attack
and stouter in defense than his predecessors, the Carabineer is the last in the
line of Horse Archers. The Carabineer's replacements in the game scarcely resemble
it. In the Industrial Age, the Armored Car usurps the Horse Archer and joins the
Light Cavalry unit line. Historically (and in the game) Light Cavalry moved faster
than Horse Archers. Their speed made for vicious and deadly pursuits, and in the
game, the nemesis becomes the master in time..
Horse
Archer - The Horse Archer first appears in the Classical Age
(the second age in the game.) These mounted soldiers offer the unique advantage
of firing ranged weapons while moving – no other combatant in the game can
fire across distance without stopping. Perhaps no other element of your battle array
will benefit as much from micro-management.
