In the game's words
How to use it
The Shock Rider is a heavy hand cavalry unit. It is available in the Commerce Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Jagiellon by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Shock Riders utilize a lance and can use a charged attack that regenerates over time. While they have low base hit points, their dual ranged and melee armor makes them versatile. Shock Riders can also ascend up to three levels of promotions by killing enemy units, each level raising their hit points and attack speed.
History
The House of Jagiellon ruled Poland and much of the surrounding territories during the 14th-16th centuries. During the 15th century, Central and Eastern European states began to make use of Balkan cavalry auxiliaries in larger quantities following the example of the Hungarian monarch Matthias Corvinus (15th century), whose Huszars were of such repute that they directly influenced the predecessors of the Winged Hussars in Poland. Generally wielding lances and shields, these cavalry were famed for their intrepid bravery, versatility, and efficiency on the battlefield, whether they were used in opening shock charges or in clever tactical maneuvers.
