Late-Game Horses and Iron

Description
This mod allows players to continue to utilize horses and iron beyond the Industrial Era. Cannons, Artillery, and Mobile SAMs now require iron to use.

Stadiums produce +3 gold for every improved horse tile and Military Bases produce +1 production for every improved horse tile. Pastures produce +2 science once Biology is discovered.

Cavalry can be built at any time. Upon building your first Military Base, all mounted units will be granted the Cavalry Rescue promotion. This allows them to have additional speed as well as a medic combat mechanic, essentially changing them from the quick war enders they were in the Industrial era into a utility unit focused entirely on healing other units. Scouts can also be upgraded to Cavalry when available.

No, upgrading Cavalry into Landships or Tanks will not keep the promotion. Good idea though.

Bug #1: Keshiks and Camel Archers do not get the Cavalry Rescue promotion once it is available.
Bug #2: Flavors are not added. Thus, AIs will treat the unit as if it didn't have an outstanding promotion.
Bug #3: In Vanilla, this will instantly heal nearby units. That's not good at all.

Don't worry fellas, Helicopters require Aluminum as they did originally. If you still want that change, I would give the Discussion Board a quick glance.

Also, maybe every unit costs iron for stuff like guns as well?

maybe make stuff like cannons need horses, like to pull them?

Would be better if you could somehow turn horses into luxury resource after cavalry becomes obsolete.

If helis still needed aluminum instead of iron i'd use this tbh.
Cavalry could be a cheap city garrison unit while I actually have good units doing other things.

"Cavalry will never become obsolete" Yeah mate, just gonna charge those mechs with my cavalry. Also why the hell do Helos use iron rather than aluminum?
