[Request] Generals on horseback

I searched to see if I could find someone asking for this already, but nothing jumped out. It seems strange to me that there was no choice. Granted I haven't check every faction, but it appears that at least the Barbarian and Viking tribes have to command on foot. Obviously the capability is in there, the Huns do it.

They may have later generals that are on horseback --- the first and second Roman general upgrades are on horses, for example, while the original general unit is not.

It's a necessary request...

I doublechecked the tech tree, and I think I see where it is. In the far right panel there's one called Frankish Martial Culture (I'm playing the Franks, obviously), which says "Unlocks recruitment of: <Horsey with sword symbol> Frankish General (replace Germanic Nobles)", so I guess it is in there, just at the faaaaaaaaar end of the tech tree. I'd still like a mod that offers mounted generals earlier, with appropriate scaling unit types.
