Calvary

[unmerged(74692)]

Do most countries such as England have calvary in the 1770's and around that time?

 

[NikkTheTrick]

Hell yes!

 

[unmerged(74692)]

cool thanks. If I havent told you before I plan on having a war with America and England and I want it to be as realistic as possible. That mostly means real units. I will have to change the New World techgroup though because of the lack of there calvary...

Dude? Tell me it's a metaphysical question ...

 

[unmerged(74692)]

No that was me being serious. I don't own the game yet if you are wondering why I would know.

I see -
Well, there are three kinds ov unit: chances are they each server a purpose. Yes cavalry is very common, not as common as in the early years bet yet much more so than artillery.

 

[unmerged(74692)]

There is more than one type of cavalry that late in the game? What is there difference?

England never had Calvary until they conquered Palestine from the Turks

But pretty much everyone except the Americans and some bits of Africa should have access to Cavalry.

Oh I see what you mean. God damn I am dumb. What did you mean by more common than artillery?

...and even quite a few Native Americans should have cavalry and all. You know, the Great Plains natives and all - they were KNOWN for their horses and cavalry.

But only since the Spanish landed in Mexico and introduced horses.

True. So later tech levels, maybe? *shrugs*

Mod an event that occurs only if a Latin Tech group nation has a core on a Native American territoy, and that then allows for recruitable cavalry.

Also, you don't need to model the Revolutionary War in EU3. It's there already, with cavalry.

Hmmm... not a bad idea...

As your land tecghnology progresses, you get access to better types of infantry, cavalry and artillery. Different types have different shock, fire and morale attack and defense.

With cavalry late in game, the choice is between cuiresseers (sp?) who are good in shock phase and dragoons, who are good in fire phase.

However, shock is so much stronger for cavalry, that this is a no-brainer.

For infantry, however, you will need to choose between shock and fire.
