Recently i have become slightly obsessed with playing as a hussar :mrgreen: I was just wondering which type of cavalry everyone else enjoys playing the most.

Dragoons.I like their versatility.
The first step to Taleworldian enlightenment is to acknowledge and ignore the fact that everyone's an *******. Love it or leave it buddy.
And did those feet in ancient time,
Walk upon Englands mountains green,
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On Englands pleasant pastures seen.

Cuirassiers count as heavy cav i think. They certainly have the same characteristics, slow horses, poor turning speed and a big scary ass sword

The same characteristics but the cuirassier possess a armor bonus on top of the health which makes them punishable. Also, they are more than viable while on the ground.

This means a less careful playstyle than the heavy cavalry. I.e circling closer to the enemy adding pressure while being able to take a bullet or two, even to the character, among other examples.

Got downed by Maktheridon the other day. He slashed me 4-5 times with his officer sword before I managed to hit back and barely kill him. Walking tanks, I say!

Fast and deadly. Exactly.
I just love hussars because of their speed.

Bump-slashing is how I play and there's no better unit than Hussar for that.  :wink:

I play them mostly due to their sweet health and extreme damage. One-hit all the time, no matter how you do it - in comparison with the hussar where you need to continiously slash the guy for 5 minutes in order to die.
