Heavy Cavalry (600 Koku - 1 Season)


Heavy cavalry are the best cavalry you can get. They are difficult to acquire, as they require a lot of buildings. They are almost unbeatable, but beware of the Yari Samurai and Warrior monks taking them by surprise. Use them on flat land rather than hilly, and never send them into the woods. All units find it more difficult to fight in the trees, but especially cavalry. Use them as shock troops to smash the enemy formation.
