Scythian nobles are superb horsemen: armoured lancers who can put many infantry units to flight.
Overview
Scythian nobles are superb horsemen: armoured lancers who can put many infantry units to flight. They are heavy cavalry who seek the good opinion of their people by acts of bravery. They are eager to prove their worth and the lure of glory is what drives them. They are equipped as armoured lancers wearing heavy Scythian mail, reinforced with bronze and iron scales in vulnerable spots. They do not bother with shields so that both hands are free to manipulate the lance. On the battlefield Scythian nobles are often used to break through an enemy line after it has been weakened by archery, carrying all before them in a disciplined, dangerous charge.
Details
Scythian Nobles are chargers and little else. With a bone breaking charge bonus, heavy armor and no shields these guys are made for one purpose: to charge into enemies and splatter them into bloody chunks. Their charge is so powerful it should shred heavy infantry, like legions quite well. Their melee skills are fairly sub par for their tier and cost. Scythian Nobles should charge and then be pulled back for another charge instead of being left in melee. Their lack of a shield can get them killed fairly easily. Amusingly, their morale, while high, is lower than Head Hunting Maidens.
