The delay in v2 rules affects decision to acquire new armies

hmmm why the range reducing? are LH troopers less able to shoot? are their bows of lesser quality? are troops that have LH or Cv options not the same and so able to shoot ate- same distances?

Well, there are a couple of reasons I can see, althought I'm not a writer so can't comment on their decisions.

1 - it's harder (much harder) to draw a bow from a saddle than standing on the ground; and,
2 - it's more accurate to be closer, so why would you shoot from a long way away when you can get close and be 'almost' as safe? It's one of the things I DO agree with dBm/dBa about.

It's to stop LH bow being so good as they are in v1 without changing points. And single rank cavalry bow as they're meant to be similar troops (and at least some or the v2 suggestions were to allow the cavalry to fall back). i.e. it's a game mechanism

Is the fall back for cavalry still in i thought that had been dropped cause it caused the end of the world
