They know it's not true, but they put it in anyway...Though the Iroquois rarely used horse-mounted warriors in combat due to the wooded terrain they usually fought in, many other tribes frequently made use of them (notably the Sioux and other tribes of the Great Plains), and to great effect12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

How true.
I can't believe I'm looking at an Indian on a horse.

This is even worse than the English/British debacle.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Well you have to balance realism with gameplay. I sure most people have no idea that the Iroquois rarely used mounted warriors.Comment

Yeah but most people are idiots.Comment

Could be interesting for a horse unit in a land that historically didn't have horses until the 16th Century.
Will the Earth map have horses in North America?

Look guys, there was no way they were going to be able to handle this hot-potato without someone getting burned. The native-American issue is one that even the most politically correct stumble around in. Seems everyone's an expert in "Indian affairs" these days.
That said, I think this civ looks like one I'll consider playing as."I was a young man with unformed ideas. I threw out queries, suggestions, wondering all the time over everything, and to my astonishment, the ideas took like wildfire. People made a religion of them." - Charles DarwinComment

How stupid. They shouldn't have given them a mounted unit

Try not to forget that this is a game - not a history textbook.Last edited by Satis5d; October 5, 2001, 16:42."I was a young man with unformed ideas.

Well I guess that makes me a idiot too. Listen most people are not history experts.Comment

But why perpetuate a mistruth?
Why not educate people with things that were true, not what they think are true.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

I don't care if someone doesn't know history at all. There where NO I REAPEAT NO HORSES IN AMERICA until they where exported from Europe during the colonization. Its ok to have mounted unit if they somehow manage to get horses or play on random map. But this is a joke if the mounted unit is their UU.Comment
