Well, I can only speak on behalf of my own "1001 Nights" mod, but it has weaknesses, and is much less powerful than the base Arco it's built on.

The main weakness is the lack of reliable infantry. The main line infantry is basically Cardaces, the best infantry type is the Janissary bowman who is very close to the base T'ien Ch'i Imperial Archer, with less protection (8), a strat move of 2 and a 2-handed scimitar (a toned-down greatsword). All that for 16 gold apiece. There's a 3rd infantry type, the 'Harem guards', who are giant eunuchs (giant here only means they have 13 hp instead of the regular 10 - think of Hollywood peplums), armed with the same great scimitars but even worse protection than the Janissaries. That's all for infantry as there are no dervishes in my mod.

Colorful, but not really earth-shattering infantry IMO. Its only saving grace is it's resource-cheap.
