![]() Also, they are affected by Steppe Husbandry which boosts their creation speed, while the Kipchaks are not affected. However, Cavalry Archers have more hit points and attack 9% faster than Kipchaks, and may be used in circumstances in which the player need to soak damage instead of harassing the opponent, like against archers. ![]() Not only do they have a better attack against high-pierce armor units, but Kipchaks also cost less gold than regular Cavalry Archers. They are also weak against camels, especially the Berber Camel Archer, and other anti-cavalry units such as Kamayuks and Halberdiers, but they can hit-and-run them if properly microed.Ĭuman players should prefer the Kipchak over the regular Cavalry Archer in most circumstances, unless the player does not have enough Castles to produce a sizeable army of them. They should still try to avoid anti-archer units in general. Kipchaks become really effective vs high-pierce armor units like buildings, siege weapons (especially Hussite Wagons), Huskarls, Eagle Warriors, and Armored Elephants. But due to the high number of arrows fired, the Kipchak still deals a considerable amount of damage since the minimum damage is 1 for each projectile. This is because archer-resistant units (such as Skirmishers and Huskarls) can survive archer fire due to their pierce armor. Unlike other cavalry archers, and in a similar fashion to the Chu Ko Nu, they can still fare fairly well against archer-resistant units. As their secondary arrows deal 0 melee damage (in addition to their regular 3 pierce damage), they are a great counter against rams and Monks. ![]() They perform exceptionally well against slow-moving units. Kipchaks are great harassers, especially if massed, as their extra arrows enables hit-and-run arrow volleys. Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties Review ![]()
