As good as chariots are, i dont think they belong in an all-cav army. Simple because everyone will attack on turn 2 EXCEPT them. That's 200 points that could be spent on a unit that will attack with the rest of your force, like 5 COKs with war banner or command.

Hmm....no chariots in an all cavalry army. In my opinion you'd be taking them as a secondary unit anyway, and not as a primary hitting unit.....therefore they may not need to be in combat by the second turn (however nice that option is).

I may however substitute a Hydra in their place, as he can soak up a heck of a lot more firepower (taking it away from your CoKs), and I find him to be as effective (if not more) than the CoCs in combat (especially prolonged combat against larger units).

10 is too big for darkriders with X bows. as half of them will never fire. Perhaps drop the XBows on two units and split one unit into two units of 6 (using the points saved from dropping the Xbows) with just musicans.

Thats will give you too dedicated combat units but also too small scout style units that are more mobile, providing shooting and at the last second delivering thee vital flank charge, they will also be very good for dealing with scoutsand lone wizards.

Just my two cents
