DBA IV/35 Mongol Conquest

Here's our Mongol Army. As you would expect very heavy on the Light Horse
giving you lots of mobility. However do they give you the same 'Offensive' power
which the Mongols used to crush the vast majority of enemies. We have only played
one game with Mongols so far. That was against the Teutonic Knights & they
didn't perform that well. From what I've read in Websites, playing a Light Horse heavy
DBA Army is an art form in itself.

IV/35 Mongol Conquest 1206-1461
1x3Cv(Gen), 2x3Cv, 8x2LH, 1x2Lh or Art

These troops are a good base for building all the Mongol variants that emerged.
Here's a cracking article (using DBA 1.1) on those armies.
