What, you don't believe me when I say I used them in MP, and survived thanks to them? I don't argue out of thin air - it really happened and I'll do it again if need be. My cataphracts proved their usefulness on one occasion, and that one time is enough for me. I fully agree with you about them being subpar when compared to other national cavalry, but - I'm happy I could recruit them this time, or that might have been game over for me.
Maybe you'll understand that when your Pangaean neighbour, located 4 province away, decides to invade you as soon as turn 11, and you've got no battle magic to speak of (no Air Elementals I mean - after all it was a Dom 1 game
). 20+ war minotaurs backed by heavy Tangle Vine support (and I mean heavy) and a bunch of Maenads trashed all my infantry (even EGs defend very poorly vs trampling when entangled). Hydras weren't really an option. Size 3 cataphracts were what I really needed to destroy this army, and they did the job nicely - they killed almost all these War Minos by themselves.
Mauvaise foi? Moi????
