Elite Bowknight

(image)

The most experienced archers on horseback are given the titles of Elite Bowknights, and they are an extremely rare occurrence. The few that exist are often assigned to support the most daring raiding parties into the most inhospitable of enemy territory, where they can ride from point to point supporting fellow soldiers with hails of arrows. They are just as vulnerable to return fire as other mounted units, so Elite Bowknights usually rely on shooting down ebeny archers befor they have a chance to return fire.
