Found this thread via the strategies link, gotta add something about the light bandar warriors.
They are actually good. Very good even, in right circumstances. But not as melee infantry - they are archers, with low precision, low range, but two attacks per round and a higher than normal damage.
You might want to recruit them against Pangaea, since it tends to mass lightly armored troops in great numbers. Light bandari take care of them like no tomorrow. I guess same goes to repelling the Ctulhus back to the sea - light bandari are THE unit to take care of chaff troops.
P.S.
Script them to fire, of course.
