Overview

Georgians: Choose between an early cavalry raid and a defensive walling plan that preserves mounted units for later. Cavalry benefits from recovery between fights, while the Mule Cart supports flexible resource gathering.

Opening decision and first timing

The starting Mule Cart can support a fast opening if moved safely between resources. Mounted regeneration makes small raids more efficient when damaged units withdraw instead of dying. Favor an engagement from higher ground when possible, since the defensive terrain bonus applies to both the army and buildings.

Composition, counters, and transition

Use Monaspas with a supporting force that can remove Spearmen or other mounted counters. A Fortified Church can protect map space and the Relic route, but its site should be chosen with the army and terrain in mind. Do not build a scattered network before securing the food and gold required to replace cavalry; preserving the first group often matters more than winning a small fight.

Opening priorities

Choose between an early cavalry raid and a defensive walling plan that preserves mounted units for later.

Core army

Cavalry benefits from recovery between fights, while the Mule Cart supports flexible resource gathering.

Technology & transition

Save surviving cavalry and let them recover before the next engagement; expand safely into a stronger later army.

Watch for

The early military edge is modest, so avoid trading away cavalry when a disengage can preserve its value.
