Jacobeast's Equites Sagittarii Romani

They're finally here at Legend of Rome II's request: The Equites Sagittarii Romani!

Ever felt like the Western (and Eastern) Roman empire was(/were) missing some good missile cavalry? Then this mod is for you!

Picked from only the finest riders and most excellent archers within the borders of the empire, these select few are the absolute crème de la crème when it comes to ranged warfare. Once these roman archers release a barrage of arrows, there is no man left standing; they either fled willingly or left for the Tartarus with an arrow to the chest. Assert your dominance on the battlefield with soldiers that even the hunnic devil archers would envy, and fight for the glory of the eternal city. Rome will never yield.

The Equites Sagittarii Romani are a tier 3 medium missile cavalry unit that is recruitable from tier 3 and tier 4 cavalry barracks for both the Western and Eastern Roman empire. I aimed for historical accuracy by using a depiction of a late Roman mounted archer (see the included picture for comparison), the colours, armour, helmet, horse armour and decorations, as well as the bracers and pants are exactly the same.

Unit stats:

Ammo: 25
Missile damage: 56
Charge bonus: 20
Melee attack: 25
Melee defence: 20
Morale: 55
Recruitment cost: 950
Upkeep cost: 340

NB: Comes, as always, with a custom officer.
