Mercenary Persian Cataphracts

As you might expect due to its geographical origins, eastern cavalry had both Hellenic and Persian influences, with the more eastern states favouring the cataphract, where all-over heavy armour was used to protect both the rider and horse. The cataphract has its origins early in antiquity, in what is now Iran. Cataphract cavalry was designed to be a hammer in the tactical toolbox of eastern generals, penetrating enemy formations before outflanking and exploiting the resultant chaos. This was helped by the use of the wedge formation to smash through enemy lines. The Sassanids famously fielded the 'Zhayedan', a force of 10,000 strong cataphract riders, as shock troops to quickly and effectively decimate their opponents.
