Superior Cavalry

A swift horse and a skilled rider have no equal.

The nomads of the steppes relied on their horses for all aspects of their lives, not only for war. It is therefore not surprising that they were able to develop the fastest cavalry the Romans had ever seen. Smaller than their western counter parts and far sturdier, the Turkish ponies favoured by the steppe peoples were also much better at climbing, swimming, and jumping. They could survive harsh climates and live on grass alone, meaning that when the Huns expanded their empire they didn’t have to limit their attacks to places where sufficient fodder could be found. This ease of care also meant steppe warriors were able to maintain several horses when migrating or on campaign, making it possible for them cover greater distances without needing to rest their mounts.
