I am thinking about a Ghaznavid army for Cancon 2023. I was looking at taking a mix of light cavalry, I am thinking of using 2x LH bow and 1x LH impact but I can have LH jav instead of impact, what do people think is best LH impact or jav? |

LH jav can shoot
LH impact as advantage against LH jav in combat
wich one is better depends of your opponent, your own style, terrain,... _________________ Audentes fortuna iuvat. |

I think LH Impact get all the mounted impact advantages such as furious charge doing an extra hit and dropping armor protection against foot on the first round. This makes them much more dangerous if you are aggressive with them.
I’m not sure how easy they would be to use in mixed formations as they each have a different preferred tactic. |

Thanks for the input. I do tend to be aggressive with my LH that is why I was thinking a base of impact would be useful. |

I tend to go for impact if available. If other light horse get to shoot at you it is -1 skirmisher shooting v +1 protection. Hard for other lights to shoot them, and they have advantage in melee. I like my lights as elite if possible (+1 point, and much tougher, especially for a 2 hit point unit) and then even harder to shoot down a factor. |
