Kanuri Cavalry

Post by eafkcv »

The Kanuri people lived northeast of Lake Chad in Kanem-Bornu, a kingdom that existed from the ninth to the 19th century. At its height, it had expanded as far as the Niger River to the west, Wadiai to the east, and the Fezzan to the north.They did all this with the help of the Kanuri cavalrymen. The soldiers and their horses were both clad head to toe in an astonishingly strong quilted cotton or padded armor, wielding swords and lances. The cavalrymen in many regions had helms made with brass and ostrich feathers but generally did not carry shields. Some places, particularly Cameroon, had access to mail armor as well.

I see, a primitive horseman. I think stats are too high, primitive should have low armor because they do not have such special equipment. Maybe 1/1? They are affected by tattoos so the hp and att would increase by an amount. Right now it seems to be a primitive axe knight, with higher mental resistance but lower hp.
