Ironcap Scout Cavalry are a chivalric era melee cavalry unit.

In-Game Description

The horses in the eastern regions were in ancient times smaller and less rugged than those elsewhere. Accordingly, the development of cavalry lagged until nomadic tribes began trading horses across the Borderlands in large enough numbers that western horses could be bred in Maoyang and Liangyun. The Ironcap Scout Cavalry are suitable for reconaissance, or small-scale battles against weaker foes such as militias and bandits.

Acquisition

Ironcap Scout Cavalry are granted for free to all players upon reaching level 10 and completing the Forging Ahead I quest. For players who began playing before this unit was made available in this manner, Ironcap Scout Cavalry can be unlocked from the Cavalry unit tree, where their node costs 2000 honour to unlock after prerequisites. This cost can be partially or fully defrayed using up to 20x Ironcap Scout's Signaculum.
