Desert Horseman

(image)

Trading speed for heavier arms and armament, Elvish Horsemen delight in riding into danger instead of away from it. The open sands are much more suited towards mounted combat than their old forests were, and through the generations the Elves have greatly increased their equestrian skills.

Special Notes: This unit's skill at skirmishing allows it to ignore enemies' zones of control and thus move unhindered around them.
