Scythed chariots are fearsome devices, covered in scythe blades to cut down any infantry foolish enough to stand when charged.
Overview
Scythed chariots are fearsome devices, covered in scythe blades to cut down any infantry foolish enough to stand when charged. Metal blades stick out from every axle like malign horns to cut down infantry. They are, however, somewhat uncontrollable: these units are not only so keen to attack the enemy that they will do so without orders, but also can run amok and attack anyone - friend or foe alike - who happens to be nearby. These are not subtle troops, and their chief power lies in a headlong charge into an enemy formation. Each chariot is pulled by powerful horses, and the driver is heavily armoured.
