    29 History:
     35==== History ====
    3036 * Fighting from horseback with a sword is a tricky thing to do. This required usage of a sword that was longer than the typical infantry sword.
    3137 * One needed a good reach to attack from the height of a horse.
     
    3339 * It wasn’t uncommon for the men to dismount and attack from foot if they were armed with only a sword.

    65 History:
     72==== History ====
    6673 * This was the weapon of choice from horseback.
    6774 * This was the unit that would eventually evolve to the medieval knight (after heavy influence by the Sarmartians and their lances).
     
    6976 * As with all cavalry – it was only the rich and the nobles who were able to fight from horseback due to the cost of owning such a beast.

    103 History:
     111==== History ====
    104112 * The javelins thrown from a horse’s back were probably 3 at most. The idea was to quickly advance with 3 in hand, then throw them all.
    105113 * After you had done that it was time to switch to your secondary weapon which was usually a spear or a sword.
    106114 * However, in the game - these units will only have ranged attack.

    140 History:
     149==== History ====
    141150 * A very rare unit in Part 1. It was used by the Persians, but it didn’t gain much traction until the Parthians, Huns, Mongols, and other people of the nomadic steeps introduced them to western Europe.
    142151 * This was the most effective unit on the battlefield for several hundred years until the well armoured knight came along.
