Description

Sarmatians are superb horse archers, well able to inflict losses as they harass enemies.

Horse-archery is the defining characteristic of warfare on the wide-open steppes, and these are extremely accomplished horsemen and archers

Their tactics are often to circle the enemy, thickening the air with arrows until they are sufficiently weakened for heavier troops to launch a full assault. Their good horsemanship means catching them with a counter-charge is difficult, even with light cavalry, and they possess enormous stamina, hardened by crossing vast distances on the plains of their homelands.

The Sarmatians are not the most refined of races, covering their quivers with human skin, and not washing themselves for months. In camp, they are usually best well away from more 'civilised' units!
