I agree with the War Wagon part, but I'm not sure about the Conquistador; they might have an awesome attack (and great armor), but still have HP comparable to units such as Hussars, and can be used (despite their slightly lackluster, for cavalry, speed) as hit-and-run units and Villager harassers. Mind you, "light cavalry" doesn't equate weak or fragile (see for example Arambais or Camel Archers).

If I were to classify them, they would be considered Light or Light-Medium Cavalry; many Dragoons, another mounted gunpowder unit, were considered light cavalry due to similar roles in the field, and outside it.
