Description
Simply, these warriors are the best cavalry in Gaul, mainly composed of the rich nobility, to form a deadly, crushing cavalry force. Their spears, shields and flexible chain mail is the very finest that can be found amongst the Arverni tribes. They are best used to break weakened enemy formations, fight against other cavalry and pursue fleeing enemies. In an emergency, they can quickly ride to the spot, and often remedy the situation in mere moments. They are brave and superb horsemen, many which have been riding for years. Although they can last in a melee versus infantry and other cavalry, shock and initial impact of their charge are the most effective tactics.
Before Caesar marched against all Gaul, the nobility had trained and ridden cavalry into war for generations, and this was their favourite mode of warfare during that time period. The bravery and skill achieved by these nobles was popular in their lands, and for them to attain, and more importantly hold onto such titles and position, required a swift horse, a sharp spear, and a talent for horsemanship and war that seldom could be equalled by a lesser race of men.
