Winged Hussars are a golden era lancer cavalry unit.

In-Game Description

The Winged Hussars are an elite unit of heavy cavalry who began as a mercenary company of deposed nobles. The wings each soldier wore in battle are made from ostrich feathers attached to wooden frames, and are intended to make a loud clattering noise during the charge, making the unit seem much bigger and louder than it really is. Their biggest advantage is the almighty war lances they wield, each of which is longer than the pikes used by most infantry, giving the enemy a most unpleasant surprise!

Acquisition

Winged Hussars can be unlocked from the Cavalry unit tree, where their node costs 25000 honour to unlock after prerequisites. This cost can be defrayed using up to 20x Winged Hussar's Signaculum.

Unit Traits

Trait	In-Game Description
▲ [War Lances]	This unit has weapons longer than those of most pikemen or lance cavalry, so they can devastate such units.

▲ [Fire-Resistant]	This unit's armour is less vulnerable to thermal weapons than other units of the same era.
▼ [Combat Penalty vs Heroes]	Charging damage dealt to heroes by this unit's charging skills reduced by 15%.
