Mercenaries can be awesome. IIRC slingers from Crete are the best missile unit in the game, it's worth it to go to Greece only for them. Every region has different mercenaries available, be sure to check out their stats. Basically it doesn't really matter how good your cavalry is, as you'll be using them as shock troops mainly. It's like KR wrote: just get your cavalry in their back while you push in the front, and any cavarly will do the trick. Keep some spears on your wings to prevent their cavalry from flanking you.
