The Apache Cavalry are native units in Age of Empires III that can be trained once a Trading Post is built on an Apache settlement. They play similarly to Dragoons in that they are ranged gunpowder cavalry strong against other cavalry. Once the Apache Raider technology is researched they gain extra damage against villagers as well, making them effective at disrupting an enemy economy or killing villagers that stray too far. As with most cavalry they are weak against heavy infantry.
