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 / Melee Cavalry / (Ara_bodyguard_cav) Nauariya haRabb (Arabian Bodyguard Cavalry) Every Arab tribal leader surrounds himself with fierce warriors who make up his personal guard. These riders are the elite, to be used in times of crisis. The men of the guard are equipped with a lance, sword, shield and leather armour. Agile and powerful, they can be used anywhere on the battlefield and against any enemy.

2	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ara_Cav) Farasin (Arabian Light Cavalry) The tribes that provide these cavalry forces are generally nomadic, and as such they spend more time mounted than on foot, even if the mount is often a camel rather than a horse. In battle these men are a highly skilled light cavalry contingent, exceedingly useful for skirmishing, pursuit, and harassment.

3	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ara_horse_archers) Farasin Qeshatin (Arabian Horse Archers) Being lightly armoured, these horse archers are ill-suited to a melee fight except with other horsemen of their ilk, though they do have a high-quality sword and helmet for when they must fight in close quarters with the enemy, preferably from his flank or rear.
3	120	120	946	946				10	150	5	15	33	11	20	35	2	20	35
4	120	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Ara_medium_cav) Abbir Farasin (Sabaean Medium Cavalry) Hailing from a highly urbanised society, these men come from both small and large settlements. Many help to work royal land grants, a few ride horses provided by stables owned by their local high priesthood, and some even enroll in the forces of semi-independent city commanders.

5	60	Cavalry / Chariot / (Ara_sabean_chariots) Seregelanan (Sabaean Chariots) The only chariot image that specifically depicts military use is at Hafrat Berd, where two of the three men in the chariot box are wielding weapons. The man in front appears to have a sword, and the man in back may have a bow. There are always two horses, but the box, its position, the number of spokes, wheel construction, and the number of men (1-3) are highly variable and often not very realistic.
