Qizilbashi Cavlary are a light cavalry unit available only to the Indian factions. Whilst being Light Cavalry, they also have the ability to wield carbines on horseback. This means that they are a highly useful unit on the field. Due to their speed, they should be used to engage the enemy on their flanks whilst the enemy themselves are pinned down from friendly line infantry fire. Furthermore they should be used to hunt down routing enemies. However due to their lack of armour they will easily be defeated by heavy cavalry, unless supported.
