From Edi's database I can construct a list of all mounted units and a list of all units equipped with whatever weapons easily enough.
I still think this is a bit of a kludge. A preferable fix would be a power weapons could have,
#pike
Which enabled them to ignore the defensive bonus provided by mounted units, in the same way that #flail lets you ignore shield parries. That would require slight modification to the game engine, but I think it'd be enough of an improvement that you could talk Johan into implementing it.

I was thinking this as I was reading the thread. It's simple and elegant, and probably not too difficult to program.
As for Ulm, I could rattle on about the various ideas I've had for them over the years; assassins, high-MR knights and guardians, stealthy preachers, standard-bearers, repeating crossbows, more types of cavalry, etc.
But most of the subtlety of Dominions is in the magic. Why don't we just bite the bullet?
Give Ulm 3E2F1? capital-only Smith Lords. Just like that, they become a fearsome nation.
