I saw somewhere in the wiki they recieve bonus from Cavalry and not Archery, but the question is: Are both their attacks considered the same, I mean, does the Cavalry skill affects both their ranged and melee attacks, or only melee. The question would be the same for Royal Guards/Heavy Royal Guards and the Fighter skill.

crimson	on: 26 Nov 2012 [02:21] There are five types of units: Archery - Green Cavalry - Purple Fighter - Blue Ballistics - Red Hero - Dark red (all colors can be seen in the background pictures of formations among other places) There is no hero skill to boost hero type troops. all other troops have a hero skill that boosts their attack. Fighter hero skill will help all blue background troops; archer hero skill will boost all green background troops, etc... It should not matter if they are in melee or in their specialty.
Hakushi	on: 26 Nov 2012 [12:18] Thx for the clarification, I just wasn't sure if the Cavalry skill affected both the melee and ranged attacks of the Horse archers. It looks like a lot of people thinks archery gives them more damage.
