Below is a comparisson between a fully upgraded Elite Manguadi, Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer with Sipahi and the Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer with Recurve Bow. Due to the lack of Ring Archer Armor or some other equivilant (like a Mongol version of Howdah or Pavise), the Elite Manguadi looses to both the Turkish and Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archers.

Against a Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer, the Manguadi would deal 6 damage per hit while taking 7 damage per hit. However, the Manguadi attacks just over 25% faster when all is said and done, so it fires five shots for every four shots fired by the Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer. '''This results in 30 damage by the Elite Manguadi for every 28 damage from the Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer. Given the Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer has 20 aditional HP, it wins in all situations.'''

Against a Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer, the Manguadi would deal 6 damage per hit while taking 8 damage per hit. However, the Manguadi attacks just over 25% faster when all is said and done, so it fires five shots for every four shots fired by the Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer. ''' This results in 30 damage by the Elite Manguadi for every 32 damage from the Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer, and this is prior to factoring the extra range into play. Given the Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer has 1 aditional attack and is likely to get the first shot in due to the aditional range, and thus wins in all situations.'''

Ironically if the Elite Manguadi had 1 aditional Pierce Armor, that would make the fight against the Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer a tie with the Elite Manguadi having a 25% increased damage output and the Turkish Heavy Cavalry Archer having 25% increased health. However, even with that extra pierce armor, the Elite Manguadi still loose to the Magyar Heavy Cavalry Archer due to its extra attack, range and thus ability to strike first.
