Stradiots

Post by nikgaukroger »

Is there any reason these should have the Cavalry option at all in any lists?

I think they really were just raiders/scouts/harassing troops - or can anyone show them to have fought in a way that requires Cv? Seems to me they were pretty much like the Jinetes in this respect, and we only aloow them LH (and that seems right).

It might be a pure FOG heritage...

OK, done a bit of reading and I am fairly convinced that like Jinetes Stradiots should only be LH.

Therefore, I will strip out the Cv option from all the lists that have Stradiots.

So if you disagree scream now :P
