#Cossack is strictly worse than standard cavalry

I played as Russia, and I never figured out a reason to build Cossack over Landship. Cossack has 5 less combat strength and receives +4 bonus in friendly territory.

I understand that Tanks are more powerful than Cavalry, but why even have this unit then?

i thought you get more attack per specialized pop in the city

im not Infront of game so cant look it up nore does it have any info online about how they work, but unless i got them mixed up i thought that they said in the description they get increase atk per specialized pop in the city or something like that? Could you post screen shot of what the disciption of the unit is?

Sure, here you go
It's roughly 20 prod or 40 gold cheaper on tier 2, but that's not the reason to build it.

also not sure if it ignores ZOC - is that innate to all cav units or only those that state it in the description?

If I am not mistaken, Landship are not calvary, am I right or wrong?
Can't check right now because Civpedia only show current and past age and I am playing a game currently in Exploration.

Cossack: Unique Cavalry Unit; does not replace other Cavalry Units. Has increased Combat Strength in friendly territory. Is all it says i must of had it mixed up with something else, i thought it did it for every urban or specialized pop but if it only does +4 that is kinda weak being you will still be at -1 to others and its not that much cheaper.
