Heavy Cavalry

August 2011·pp. 40–41

THE SHORT VERSION

Heavy cavalry can form an arrowhead around a strong mounted hero, with supporting riders and a banner turning a breach into a sequence of Heroic Combats. An army built around the charge needs reserves and cheaper heroes to keep movement under control after the first impact. The article also explains how terrain, countercharging mounted models and defensive shielding can blunt an opposing cavalry attack, using Morgul Knights and Imrahil’s Dol Amroth force as examples.
