ISTR (from the manual?) that it picks a random eligible from all those available and then targets its squad. So if there is a squad of 99 cavalry and another squad of 1 cavalry, 99% it will target the squad of 99.
The reason archer decoys work is because if there is a squad of 1 within range and a squad of 99 out of range, it will target the squad of 1 100% of the time instead of moving into range to shoot at the 99.
