Armed with axes and shields, Scara Cavalry are a force to reckon with, with added speed. Normally, the somewhat lumbering speed of heavy cavalry makes them good only for running away or chasing down infantrymen (once the opportunity is offered), but with the added speed bonus, Scara Cavalry are now even more offensive-minded operation, now having an agility which makes the French army even more flexible. Now, whole battalions of light cavalry and infantry not only can be intercepted, but also interdicted at the same time, given the heavy armaments of heavy cavalry. Nevertheless, there is only so much the Scara Cavalry can do, and these do not include assaulting grinders of spearmen or castles.
