Re: Mobile Ranged Unit Improvement
I wouldn't say light infantry or javelineers are useless in the way horse archers are.
You can put javelineers behind heavier troops, and usually the fight is over before they get sucked into melee.
Light infantry can be recruited much faster than heavies, which is a real advantage. Slingers are deadly against a lot of the very low protection EA units, so they are not as useless as they used to be either.
