id have to say good balanced, they have strong and weak points, against other cavalry, arrows and spells they die fast so by no means a safe bet, altho with good use they can be dangerous

I like Pistoliers. If someone consider them imba, should consider that is not what they ARE, is what they COST.

I think they're fine as long as played fair and noble
But they are truly worst hit'n'runners (2d place after mage with teleport).
So the topic is necessary.

i dont like how they're balanced now. they're seems too weak for cavalry and too costly for simple archers. also they need very good micro to handle them well. i prefer to see them as infantry unit, not cavalry.
also i hate when people hit n run with them

i think with the rules that are made to stop hit and runs when pistoliers are left as last regiment they are fairly well balanced.

The trouble is what its hard to catch them even with cavalry, they will be routed (if its mortal riders) or just killed (if its UD). They fire too fast & reload fast & ride fast & have good damage. They are big strategical unit - they can easilly kill enemy mage. And still 3 points... they have low cost in GC, but they are cavalry, even if there only 9 of them. (12 in basic cavalry). Its hard to handle them in big map if you hadnt any cavalry.
A bit uncomfortable to play against them. Thats all.
Upd: in last battle they killed 30 units, 10+ was cavalry, others was skellies. And it isnt their best result.
They killed more than 3 points and 9/9 left.

If someone consider them imba...
Im consider them imba for 3 pts.
I have an idea, maybe just ban false charge ability for pistoliers (another Polite rule).

I consider them imba because of the hit and run tactic but they can't be used in a different way.

Yeah 3 points seem doable.
