In rational terms, I too am pretty sure the plow team does the clan more good. And high magic is nice.
But...
Earthshaker Cavalry is just --so **incredibly** cool--. I can't stop grinning at the thought of them, or writing this message. I love having them waiting in reserve to turn a potential disaster into victory or a much-needed probable victory into an overwhelming one.
And yeah, they eventually die gloriously in combat, and I'm then very sad. 8(
When I'm playing rationally, the earthshakers become oxen. When my heart is in charge.... saddle them up. 8)
It doesn't hurt that Triceratops was my favorite dinosaur as a kid. 8)
