The Huns are supposed to be a cavalry based civ, combining both heavy
cavalry and cav archers. They lack champions so it is hard for them to
dominate in imperial age. They have to rely heavily on their paladins and
heavy cav archers in imperial age. Their real strength is in quick hit and
run type attacks in early castle age. Their unique unit is very helpful in
this respect because it takes down buildings with ease. The Huns preform
very much like the Mongols and are very deadly when they are together on the
same team. Their only econ bonus is not needing houses. This helps them
out a lot in the early part of the game, but decreases in value as time goes
on. Their unique tech in unknown at this time but Sandy says it is his
favorite unique tech in the game.
The main advantage of the Huns is their speed, both in age advancement,
production of units and of the units themselves. Their fast cav archers,
heavy cavalry, and UU are great for raiding enemy towns. Their trebs are
powerful as well.
The main weaknesses of the Huns is their reliance on mounted units, and lack
of a powerful late game economy. They are very predicable.
