In the game's words
How to use it
The Jat Lancer is a mercenary Indian cavalry unit. It is faster than a typical heavy cavalry unit, and does devastating damage against enemy archers and skirmishers. It has superb survivability against ranged units, but has a tougher time surviving against melee units. For this reason, units like the Pikemen can defeat the Jat Lancer more easily than most cavalry.
History
The Jat people are a large ethnic group living in the Punjab, Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi and Rajasthan states of India. They share no single faith, language, or series of customs, but are linked by a common history. Jats reached Egypt with Muslim conquerors, lived in Afghanistan before the Muslims, invaded China with the Mongol army, and even posed a threat to Tamarlane in Persia and Uzbekistan. The first mention of the Jat people in Indian literature occurred in 900 BCE in the Sanskrit epic, "Mahabharata". They are referred to as a democratic federation, or a collection of tribes. During the occupation of India by British forces, the Jats were designated a martial race, or an ethnic group that based on exhibited qualities was predisposed to fighting. The British recruited native soldiers heavily from these particular populations. Among the most distinguished were the 14th Murray’s Jat Lancers. Cavalry officer Badlu Singh was awarded the Victoria Cross for assaulting a machine gun placement during a World War I assault in Palestine.
