Rebel Lords of Nan-Yang Cavalry & Chariots

Jade Lancers

The heavy cavalry of Cathay are the Jade Lancers, mounted soldiers of the great cities. The wealthiest cities like Fu-Chow or Wei-jin can afford large contingents of Jade Lancers, though even the remote cities of the south and west can also usually muster at least a unit of these troops. In addition to being a potent tool in the open field, Jade Lancers train to fight in the constricted streets of their cities, and are able to launch devastating charges through narrow alleyways, across bridges and through the tunnels that pierce the city walls.

  This unit counts as a Yang unit for the purpose of Battle Harmony proximity

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Harmony: Yang
  This unit counts as a Yang unit and gains increased melee defence and leadership when near Yin units.
• Armoured & Shielded
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage. Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Anti-Infantry
  Anti-infantry units have an advantage against targets that are smaller than a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against small targets, superior weight used to smash through lighter enemies, or an explosive attack from range that effects a large area.
