Military Unit

Cavalry

CAVALRY are mounted scouts and raiders, fast but lightly armed.

Useful early for exploring and for chasing down BARBARIANS in the open.


Requires HORSEBACK RIDING. Made obsolete by CONSCRIPTION.

Do not send them against defended cities; their strength is reach, not force.

CHIVALRY replaces them with the far heavier KNIGHTS.
