In the game's words
How to use it
The Comanche Horse Archer is a cavalry unit with good speed, hitpoints, and a good ranged attack. They are particularly effective against hand cavalry. The Comanche Horse Archer does his damage at range; it is good to use this unit's speed to maintain range. Like all Native American warriors, the Comanche Horse Archer does not take any population space, making them an excellent unit to train if you have reached the upper limits of your population. Fast and ranged, they are an excellent unit to train, even if you haven't reached your population limit.
History
It is thought that the Comanche split off from the Shoshone and moved onto the Great Plains and south into Texas in pursuit of horses. After its introduction by the Spanish, the horse became an integral part of Comanche life. A man would spend much of his life astride a horse, and his family's wealth was measured in horses. The Comanche people successfully defended their lands from European settlers for almost a 100 years, fighting off wave after wave of settlers. They fought and hunted from horseback with short bows, lances, and buffalo hide shields.
