I hope so :-)
At least the civ 2 ruleset should support them, as CivII did ;-)

But for the freecic ruleset we maybe could can change the
move_rate of the elephants and crusaders from 2 to 1. Then
there would be also a real difference between the dragoons
and the crusaders, because the dragoons make the crusaders
obsolette. The actual differences are that the dragoons
costs 10 shields more and that they have 10 more hitpointes.
