Melee cavalry expert is even worse for Alfred than counter infantry expert. Obviously charge cavalry expert would make more sense. But cavalry points instead of adminstration - it is a good news for almost everyone, well, kingbutawl can be an exception  He deployed Alfred as a consul. |

I suppose now their idea is to give him more mobility and to transform into best f2p pure cav general. Won't be surprised if one of the melee cav units will receive Mobilize skill. Melee cav is just too weak now. |

Policies cost nothing thanks to him and his last skill is not that useless . You’re not the only one aiming to “alternative solutions”. Obviously Iustinian is the best consul, but for now he’s out of my league (by 150 medals). |

Melee cav is just too weak now. True, melee cavalry, including top tier units like Teutonic knights, has nothing to offer at the moment except for 11 speed. It is definitely not enough. The difference between Hospitaliers and Teutons on one side, and Templars on the other is so evident right now that it might be even bad for the business. Charlemagne is not the best general out there, but, to add insult to injury, his unit is not in the same league as Templars. Not the best promotion, I would say. |

Melee cavalry will be strengthened I’d hope so. Otherwise Alfred would be trasher  |

My goodness, this bad, really bad. I have Richard, and Basil II and Totila for the role of Cav General. And my Alfred, with his shield of defense and Administration, and Counter Inf Expert+Pole arm expert, I spent all the points increase his Inf capability, for him to be a fat Inf Gen defend choke point. I have Templars and ignore his Noble Cav…
I was so careful about buying and upgrading Gens, but Alfred was cheap, and has a shield, and shining good, and this…
And it doesn’t make sense when his special unit is Noble Cav and they give him Melee Cav Expert.
Only hope they give us a chance to increase skill level, one or two level is enough. But with patches like this…

But with patches like this… The real balance would need the same skill selection/swapping system like in “EW6 1914”, a way much easier path for units upgrading, or a charging cavalry synchronisation (where at the charge of a cavalry unit the others follow; this way all of the outburst generals would still remain useful against the omnipresent counter infantries. A mere addition in cavalry points cannot compensate this terrible debuff |

Bye Alfred with Counter Infantry. Hi Alfred with War Elephant. That's the spirit. We want new things to happen but that also means letting go some of the old ones  |
