This strategy section feels very out-of-date.

To the best of my knowledge, the current meta for huns in 1v1 games is your choice of Dark/Feudal Age aggression (though most commonly scouts into archers), into Cavalry Archers in Castle Age, followed by a transition into Tarkans in the late Castle/Imperial Age.

Your end game composition is usually Elite Tarkans, with supporting Heavy Cavalry Archers.

To the best of my understanding, Tarkans are preferred over Knights because of their incredible creation time, dropping to 8.75 seconds with Conscription, combined with significantly lower upgrade costs and a slightly lower gold cost, making them fairly efficient to start with, but they also have additional pierce armour, giving them an advantage against ranged units that Cavalry Archers might struggle with (like Camel Archers) and their ability to take-out buildings extremely quickly, for solid raiding efficiency, putting enough pressure to force their opponent to respond.

I would include some of this in the Wiki, but as someone who is a novice myself, I just wanted someone to confirm or reject my understanding of the Hun meta before I added this to the wiki.
