The Cavalry Archer is a archer cavalry unit which is featured in Age of Empires II. Their high speed and ranged attack make them excellent harrassers, a hit-and-runner and a good counter for infantry units. With enough micromanagement, a small force of cavalry archers can take out whole contigents of foot-soldiers. However, they are hindered somewhat by their slow rate of fire. Also, though they are trained at the archery range, they are still affected by the attack bonus of anti-cavalry units such as Pikemen and Mamelukes.
