The Comanche Mounted Warriors are a unique unit available only to the Plains Nations in the Warpath Campaign. They are a Missile Cavalry unit capable of unleashing devastating volleys upon enemy troops. Their impressive speed and stamina means that they can cover ground quickly, allowing them to support areas of the battlefield where help is needed. They can also handle themselves in melee to an extent, if supported by other cavalry or infantry units. However they should not be used on a frontal attack on an enemy [[Line Infantry (ETW Unit)|Line Infantry]], as a volley could be devastating. Instead they should fire upon the enemy flanks and ten ride away to reload. Using this tactic the Comanche Mounted Warriors can maximise their effectiveness. | The Comanche Mounted Warriors are a unique unit available only to the Plains Nations in the Warpath Campaign.

These mounted musketeers have superior riding skills, making them an effective attack force.
Overview
The Comanche are gifted horsemen with an unmatched understanding of their horses. These skills allow them to cross even rough ground with terrifying speed, and then pepper an enemy with musket balls and tomahawks. They can then quickly withdraw to safety to reload, or rejoin the main body of a tribal army.
When the Spanish left horses in North America, the Comanche quickly recognised their potential, and rebuilt their lives around the animals. Their individual skills on horseback seemed almost magical to their enemies: riding bareback, they could even pick up fallen comrades at the gallop! The Comanche were particularly fond of pinto horses, believing them to be sacred. Pintos were also supposed to give their riders invulnerability in battle.
Details
The Comanche Mounted Warriors are a unique unit available only to the Plains Nations in the Warpath Campaign. They are a Missile Cavalry unit capable of unleashing devastating volleys upon enemy troops. Their impressive speed and stamina means that they can cover ground quickly, allowing them to support areas of the battlefield where help is needed. They can also handle themselves in melee to an extent, if supported by other cavalry or infantry units. However they should not be used on a frontal attack on an enemy Line Infantry, as a volley could be devastating. Instead they should fire upon the enemy flanks and ten ride away to reload. Using this tactic the Comanche Mounted Warriors can maximise their effectiveness.
