Overall strategy[edit | edit source]
While they may be deficient in armour, Steppe Lancers instead make up for it with added offensive power and hitpoints, thus making them ideal as a form of medium cavalry. They may not exactly be elite units, but the skills of their riders, as well as their crude armour make Steppe Lancers a terror for most enemy light cavalry not prepared to deal with them. Only dedicated heavy cavalry, such as the Saka Sahiya Hadabara, can hope to make any gains if pitted against them.
