Horse archers OP please nerf 😭
Beware the feigned retreat!
shame you didn't include any of the native americans who were able to take on firepower with their bow and arrow skills
their only flaw was that there was just not enough native warriors after small pox whiped out north america
but the civil war vets were terrified of the lakota and crazy horse was their nightmare
They didn't have horses until the early modern age though. Even when they aquired them later three native Americans were never really 'horse nomads'.
there were hores once before in the Americas. the plains indians had remembered the horses in oral history and when they came back, they were tamed and used like the horses from the ages before. Like no time was lost.
They had been extinct for about 8000 years at that point.
Like no time was lost.
Is extremely unlikely, especially as there is no evidence at all that horses were ever domesticated before 3700 BC, and that was in asia.
you should talk to natives more often, we have long oral histories
even steven hawkings agreed, he wrote about it in his last book
The aren't many natives in Europe so that not stop easy.
Stephen Hawking was a very smart man, but not a historian.
The length of the oral history doesn't matter if they never ride the horses before they went extinct though.
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance one of the first missions is escape some Cuman horse archers chasing you.
