Heavy Horse Studs

Heavy horses, bred for stamina and strength as heavy cavalry mounts.

Eastern cavalry had both Hellenistic and Persian influences, with the more easterly states favouring cataphract-style scale armour, in the Parthian fashion, protecting both rider and horse. As a result, the Seleucid kings that followed Alexander maintained two 1,000-man units of elite cavalry, the Hetairoi, modelled on Parthian cataphracts. Following the Alexandrian and Parthian examples, heavy cavalry were a hammer in the tactical toolbox of eastern generals, driving off their opposite numbers before outflanking and exploiting vulnerable infantry flanks. This was helped by the use of a wedge formation to drive into the enemy and break their ordered lines.

1	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Afr_Garamantine_Cav) Parasim Garamantim (Garamantine Cavalry) These men, despite their daring disposition, are light cavalry and should not be expected to break the enemy in a frontal charge. Rather, these men are best used to encircle the enemy and to chase down those who attempt to flee the battlefield.
1	120	120	960	960				15	90	7	5	32	9	22	50	2	20	60
2	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Afr_Maure_Cav) Parasim Maurim (Maure Cavalry) Maure Cavalry are fast moving, skirmishing troops typically used by the Carthaginians and Berber chieftains. They are armed with javelins and a sword of North African origin, similar to the Tabouka used by the Tuareg people. The Maures are protected by a small leather shield and by a cloak made of animal fur that they use like it was a breastplate.

3	30	Cavalry / Chariot / (Afr_Maure_Chariot_Raiders) Merkabim Maurim (Maure Chariots) The Berber nobles and chieftains ride across the desert in large chariots from which they throw spears and javelins at their enemies. The rock art of the Garamantines depicts their chariots as being driven by two horses, which seems a realistic number.

4	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Afr_Numidian_Cav) Parasim Numidim (Numidian Cavalry) Almost born in the saddle, these mounted skirmishers are a fast-moving threat.
4	120	120	898	898				15	90	9	8	30	10	22	34	2	20	55
5	100	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Afr_Numidian_Noble_Cav) Gldgmtk (Numidian Noble Cavalry) Trained from infancy as cavalrymen, these warriors are a powerful tool for any general.
