Horse Archer-Cavalry

[Beamed]

Hullo again. I know I'm bombarding this board with random questions suddenly, so I suppose I'd best make this quick.

I've noticed that tons of units are modified by your ruling law, and then slightly modified by the various powers you give the different population types in your provinces. All's well and good. But never have I seen even a single archer cavalry unit. Are they only available to Mongols, are they unlocked by a tech later, or..?

As far as I know, they are exclusive Mongol units.

Only Mongols can have archer cavaliry unit.

I see arabs with horse archers all the time.

I think it's not just limited to Mongols and Arabs, but the AI. Even if you play as an Arab or Mongol ruler you don't get to filed horse archers.

Muslims can only get them through events and when I come to think of it the Mongols also seem to only get them through events.
