Grivpanvar Cataphracts

The Grivpanvar strike fear, and a four metre lance, into the hearts of their enemies.

Grivpanvar, from the Middle Persian term for 'neck guard', were elite units that originated in the late Parthian Empire, but were fully adopted by the Sassanids. They were similar in many ways to the cataphracts - both horse and rider were heavily armoured and used as shock troops, smashing through enemy lines to soften forces for the rest to exploit. The Grivpanvar employed the Kontos; a long, wooden cavalry lance. Heliodorus claimed that the strength of the charge, combined with the length and weight of the spear, could impale two men at once.
