Another summer beta inspired one. Cav get +5 HP from cav recon with mounted infantry, limbered artillery gets speed 8 and 390-410 hp with this. So you cavalry becomes this immensely flexible unit that matches a wide variety of units with speed. Camels and elephants will go hard next patch. Especially camels since those get positive terrain modifiers. Rocket artillery also gets a huge breakthrough buff, so cav with towed rockets captures the flavor of the unique summer beta insanity. --THIS IS MORE A SHOWCASE OF THE FLEXIBILITY, this uses pretty early tech to highlight this-- I went with pioneers specifically to give the cavalry a tiny subset of terrain types they aren't unacceptably bad on. -- Plus posidon is the god of the sea and horses so lets align our cavalry with their proper elemental affinity here. -- To upgrade this, you can use mechs harden it a little, boost hard attack, and breakthrough. We like our cavalry a little hardened in this household. Armored cars could work for attacking in moderation, but an an offensive version should have flame-tanks and signal companies, as well. --WEAKNESES-- Can't cheese the HP with hospitals. Terrain modifiers are bad. Combating the terrain modifiers is expensive. This is supposed to be cheap so the upgrades being expensive is a weakness.

Adverse terrain defensive version, 360 HP, high recovery rate, and speed 8 leaves you with little room to get overrun. View template →

Seems a good budget attack unit

@123 I mean, its half the cost of most everything else I post, and the breakthrough buffs this gets summer beta are quite good. It might not even make sense to use heavy weapons companies anymore, just straight rockets with how much rockets defenses are buffed. Variations of this also just. Work well as defensive units with minor alterations to be more heavy on cav and hard attacks. HP on cav recon is a lot cheaper than HP on logisitics companies, so that +5 bonus on the beta is very impactful. Without an armored car to bless your presence, just using a good breakthrough spirit (Smoke and fire, and the artillery one are both reasonable. I believe the artillery one is better here as rocket artillery has +8 breakthrough there so rocket artillery has such high breakthrough that 10% of that is more than 5% of the division and you also get defense I think...) Add in one armored car or some bathtubs to bring forward posidons blessing, and the breakthrough goes through the roof. The enemy will be bathed in the fires of posidon.... Wait what?
