Rancher

In the wilder, less tamed regions of Wesnoth, the horse clans provide a steady supply of mounts, so even common farmers can usually afford a small horse. Once a man has a horse, it becomes easier to travel long distances and to keep control of animal herds; however, such Ranchers tend to equip themselves with only the simplest of spears, perhaps dreaming of being numbered among Wesnoth's horsemen. Few achieve this dream; charging any real soldier on the back of a horse whilst wearing little to no armour is tantamount to suicide.
Special Notes: Using a charging attack doubles both damage dealt and received; this does not affect defensive retaliation.
