Horseback units generally have greater [[Movement|movement]] than non-mounted units, granting them exceptional map presence on the ground. Consequently, they possess the ability to readily manipulate the offensive momentum of the battlefield as well as provide various forms of support (e.g., cleanup, shuttling, scouting). Likely as a balancing mechanic, their mounted attribute can be exploited by certain weapons that deal [[Weapon effectiveness|effective damage]] against them.

In more recent games the unit type merged with [[Beast Unit|Beast]] unit type, and now extends to not only horseback units, but also units riding Pegasi/Griffons as well as several shapeshifter classes, like [[Kitsune]].

Revision as of 16:54, 19 August 2020

Horseback Unit is a designation certain classes have that mark them with a vulnerability to anti-mount weapons (e.g. Horseslayer, Poleax), and grant them certain terrain dis/advantages.

Overview

Horseback units generally have greater movement than non-mounted units, granting them exceptional map presence on the ground. Consequently, they possess the ability to readily manipulate the offensive momentum of the battlefield as well as provide various forms of support (e.g., cleanup, shuttling, scouting). Likely as a balancing mechanic, their mounted attribute can be exploited by certain weapons that deal effective damage against them.

In more recent games the unit type merged with Beast unit type, and now extends to not only horseback units, but also units riding Pegasi/Griffons as well as several shapeshifter classes, like Kitsune.
