Heavy Mounted Archers
These archers excel at harassing enemy troops, but are unafraid of charging into the melee if needed.Mounted archers provide a general with an invaluable advantage: the ability to rain arrows down upon an enemy whilst staying safely out of reach of counter-attacks. Their horses are trained not to buck or flee in the furore of combat, giving the archers unparalleled versatility.
Should the melee somehow reach them, however, these warriors are better prepared than other mounted archers, armed with plate mail to deflect blows, and dao swords with which to fight back.
