Cavalry Corral
Warriors can fight from horseback, but not all riders are warriors.The eastern nations eschewed columns of infantry in favour of a dominant cavalry force able to outmanoeuvre and harass infantry on their native plains. Therefore, in the name of variety, eastern cavalry took many forms. As a result short swordsmen, light skirmishers and archers were all used, but the primary, most effective weapon was the lance, particularly amongst the heavy cavalry elite. The kontos was a wooden lance, roughly four metres in length, and was much stronger than contemporary Roman and Hellenistic lances. According to Plutarch, the strength of the lance and the power the rider put behind it meant that, purportedly, it could even skewer two men at once.
