Fantasia MP - Iroquois Cavalry/Artillery?

[Gordianus]

The Iroquois seem unable to build cavalry or artillery. Can this be changed?

I understand that this is ahistorical. However, my friends and I play EU/EUII on a LAN, and we're more interested in the geographical dispersion of our starting positions than historical niceties.

Are you sure you have the technology for it?

Though if you can build infantry you can build cavalry, but artillery requires level 7 Land Tech.

 

[Gordianus]

Nope, I definitely can't produce cavalry.

My tech is still insufficient, so I'm not certain if the artillery are also locked out.

This is turning into a problem, as I conquered 80% of France, but I am about to get my butt kicked out, because I don't have any horsies.

I thought that I might get them after making contact with the Europeans, but that was not the case.

If he can conquer 80% of france, i think you can presume he has the few ducats needed to buy horses

I think the indians lack one spesific resource called "horses" to build cavalry...

Though they have some horsies in France.

You mean Horse d'Oeuvre?

Touché! However I would think that the French are more likely to eat horses than the Iroquois. The Iroquois never really used the horse, unlike the plains natives. When the French first brought in horses the natives called them French Moose but never used them. Horses don't work so well in the woods.
