Elephants = Calvary or Monsters for Targeting?

[Meglobob]

I recently give my archers fire cavalry orders vs Pangaea's white centaurs. I assumed white centaurs would be classed as cavalry but the archers completely refused to fire at the white centaurs. So I have to assume white centaurs are not classed as cavalry.

That's true. Centaurs don't have the #mounted tag, they are just fast creatures unable to use boots. This means that various armors' encumberance values affect them as infantry (knights would ignore the enc of armor but would have increased enc instead), have higher innate defense but don't have the mounted bonus (knights have +3 defense), etc.
