Regular
i find cavalry to be utterly useless in this game. when i watch the kill reports i rarely see a kill from them when firing their carbines. not sure if their accuracy just sucks or they receive a huge penalty from horseback firing. i only have a few of them that i let charge at the very end of a battle to chase down routed enemies. other than that i have a some infantry infantry and everyone else are marksman. the marksmen can be equipped with halberds or swords as well and make decent enough infantry that i cant justify using regular infantry.
as soon as the last of my current infantry die off im not even going to bother replacing them. in future games this will also save me money cause i wont have to worry about upgrading their equipment. i would consider abandoning cavalry as well since their aim sucks. but i would feel weird being the only guy on horseback......
for sieges i really wish they would redo the AI for the enemy. breaching with explosives makes it silly easy to get in there because they all huddle near the hole in the wall and when me and my companions come through we just lob grenades at them and kill a bunch of them before half of my army is even at the wall.
