Near the end of the assault, the cavalry waits for infantry support instead of charging alone. Infantry is called the true strength of a Roman army even though cavalry has decided most battles in this game campaign. The distinction keeps the scenario's results separate from the broader composition of Roman forces. Cavalry can decide a battle here without replacing infantry as the army's main arm.
