Mandekalu Horsemen
The Mandekalu Horsemen are the additional support of the Malian military. These Horon - the free people of Mali - received their mount and equipment from the Ton-tigi and the Mansa. Charging into the battle with lances and long swords, the Mandekalu Horsemen projected the power of the Mansa even in the furthest corners of the empire.
Can gain Experience in order to be promoted to Farari Infantry and Farari Cavalry after the advance Farari Corps has been researched. Experience is shared by all Mandekalu units. Won battles grant +15, lost battles grant +5 Experience per participating Mandekalu unit.
