Late game? They start to benefit from the ship bonus in the Tool Age when they start building Scout Ships, and Academy units movement bonus kicks in with the Bronze Age and is very useful, since normal Academy units move slowly. They don't get Cataphracts, but they do get Heavy Cavalry, which is often good enough unless you last out to absolute top-of-tech-tree endgame (remember the upgrade costs 2000 Food and 900 Gold, only the Juggernaut upgrade is as expensive, and the advantage isn't as great as it is in the cheaper infantry). Their real weakness is they have no archers past the Tool Age, so you are going to want to get that Cavalry out to chase down the enemy's archers.
