Tactics against Khergits?

[Argeus the Paladin]

Fight fire with fire, charge them with Swadian Kinghts, it always works.

While that might be the ultimate answer to Khergits (and every other threat in the game except for Mamluks), but I fear that takes quite some time to raise a sizeable force of Swadian Knights. And every knight you lose isn't easily replaceable. So unless you have the means and time to train Swadians all up to knights, I'd suggest some cheaper and faster strategies.

It doesn't, at least compared to the other branches of the Swadian military. If only for the fact that they hardly ever die and as soon as you've got two or three up, the rest will snowball in no time.

Only downside to swad knights are, the cost of them snowballs and before you know it you have to go around looting every village to get enough money to pay them!
