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.

Savar-i Zubindar
(Dahae Skirmisher Cavalry)

These Dahae tribesmen fill a vital role in the clan host. While they do make excellent skirmishers, this is not their only calling. They are warriors of the steppe and wield spears with skill and courage, willing to close with the enemy when the odds are in their favour.

Asavaran-i Dehbed
(Parthian Noble Horse Archers)

The Dehbeds are members of the Azat nobility of Parthia, and can afford better equipment than typical horse archers, including scale armour and a lance. They rely on the composite bow to weaken their enemy before closing for melee. The Dehbed cavalry is a very flexible force, extremely mobile and able to provide concentrated archery or, when required, to drive home a charge.

Shivatir-i Pahlavig
(Parthian Horse Archers)

These cavalrymen are recruited from the clan warriors of Parthia, and originally come from the steppes of central Asia. Like their ancestors, they learn to ride as soon as they can walk. The Pahlava Shivatir form the backbone of all Parthian armies. Led by the Dehbed minor nobility into battle, these Bandaka (bondsmen or retainers) rely on missile fire as their primary asset.
