Whats the best non Khergit Calvary unit in game?

[TheSarranid]

I want to make some good calvary. For storming fields. I want to know the best TOP TIER calvary in order from best to worst.

 

[manekemaan]

swadian knight
sarranid mamluke
vaegir knight

I would think that swadian knights, mamalukes and maybe vaegir knights are all better than lancers, but not sure.  their advantage is in their coursers, making them fast harassment troops.

Swadian knights for field battles ( face it, it owns)  Mamluke/vaegir knights have a slight more advantage over siege battles due to their shield for mamlukes and axes for vaegirs.

This. If I have to choose one to accommodate all situations, I go with mamlukes.

I played with Swadian Knights on Desert... Guess what happened?

I won but I lost over 20 knights out of 30...

This shows mamlukes are great

mamlukes a little bit OP if you ask me, 7 riding and lower level than the swadian knights meaning there will be more produced compared to the knights.

Don't forget the Slaver Chief, their blunt weapons do a number on armoured foes. Vegir Knights I don't like much. I love the Swad Knight and Mamaluke, and find my best results with my all cav army are when I have several of both along with Slaver Cheifs. Vegir Knights add nothing to the mix.

The bulk of my all cav army is Khergit, though few make it into the front line of battle. A few Vet Horse Archers and Lancers are always welcome though.

Ya the only one that is not idiotic enough to choose 2h over shields XD.

I normally go with either Swadian knights or mamelukes. I favor Swadian knights purely because they have better armor.  The Slaver chief is a excellent choice as well but it's really hard to get those guys and every loss is a big one.

I feel like a heretic for saying this... But mercenary cavalry.

They've got armored horses, lances, swords and shields. Are easily recruited, no training required (unles you recruit mecenary horsemen) So nooo problems when one dies For sieges they're still useful troops due to their sword & Shield... I think this is my second-favorite unit in the game, Hired Blades being my favorite.

 

[Seven of Spades]

I like mamelukes most, there are almost like swadian knigths but cheaper.

And I can command them with the "3, f3, f3" order. Some of them have blunt weapons!

 

[bonez899]

I find that whichever is easiest, honestly in a battle stats don't count for much because the best unit you have will start using a lance and only a lance or stupid things such as that, in the end I would just go for whatever fit with my RP best.

Hired Blades cause they were the only units able to counter the *cough* dark *cough* knights *cough*.
