Gothic cavalry are an aristocratic - if such a word can be applied to barbarians - heavy cavalry elite of the German tribes.
Overview
Gothic cavalry are an aristocratic - if such a word can be applied to barbarians - heavy cavalry elite of the German tribes. Having the wealth to risk a horse in battle requires status, and among barbarians this status is retained by acts of personal bravery. As a result, these men think little or nothing of danger, and are keen to be the first to come to grips with an enemy. They are well armed and well armoured, having spears, heavy mail coats and shields. They are, however, prone to attacking whether or not it makes sense to their warlord - glory and honour are always worth pursuing, after all!
They are best employed at what they do best - hitting an enemy hard and repeatedly. Victory over the foe is always glorious, so they will not think less of an order to attack the flank or rear of an enemy unit.
Details
Gothic Cavalry is by far the best barbarian cavalry in the game. It can stand up to any other faction's cavalry, even Roman ones and it is devastating both on the charge and in melee. They have pretty much unbreakable morale unless very few are left. They are however extremely hard to get in sufficient numbers. A 2 turn training time and the advanced buildings mean just getting Gothic Cavalry is the hard part.
