Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Eas_Armour_Horse_Archers) Shivatir-i Zrehbaran (Parthian Cataphract Horse Archers) These horsemen are the elite of the Parthian kingdom; they are highly trained, manoeuverable, and hard-hitting heavy cavalry. The use of skirmishing and rapid manoeuvers by shock cavalry are important elements of Parthian battles, and the Zradha Shivatir are masters at this. |

Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (AOR_26_Yuezhi_Archers) Jamsya Yukhuna Duna Purma (Yuezhi Horse Archers) These horsemen make up the backbone of the Yuezhi cavalry, as horse-archers.

Used wisely, these mounted archers are a danger to any ill-prepared enemy. |
