Does anyone have experience with using 100% harad cavalry? Any feedback?

I use cavalry only as a support to the mumak. Which is close to a cavalry army. I take suladan for his 3 might as their leader and 6 harad raiders to proxy serpent riders (oop - hope we will have it back). they are used to fast eliminate threads and kill whats left of the mumak's charge. It's working very well.

The problem is the cavalry rules : after engage, you loose priority, you cant retreat and you're kaput ! And with bases size, you cant fight against infantry.
So, it's really hard to play.

Of course, this is obvious for every cavalry. You need might or you need infantry support. Harad has not many named heroes and this is a problem for the might amount they can deploy.

Check this video it is for Rohan but it explains a lot about what is working and why. Comparing it with Harad you can get every answer:

I enjoyed that video. It gave me a few things to think about.

Cavalry are so vunerable to Hurl.

That said, try a mix of Serpent Riders (easy to convert with just the back horn things (Insta Mold or Blue Stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDbNmvUY9II ) and regular Harad cav with bows with war spears. Arguably the best (cheap & deadly) evil cav.

Not competative, I don't think...

The real question is where to find that certain part...

Find a single Serpent Guard on Ebay, or just find a picture and imitate it with green stuff.

You could also press mold the front spikes on Suladan and glue them to the back of some raiders to make proxy raiders.
