The Heavy Cavalry (unit) is a unit in Rise of Rome, a scenario in Civilization III: Conquests.

Civilopedia entry[]

Heavy cavalry represents well-armed and well-trained horse troops. Ancient heavy cavalry would usually be armed with a long thrusting spear, as well as a short sword for closer encounters. Such a band of veteran cavalry would typically have little trouble dealing with a similar-sized group of barbarian cavalry lacking the same training and cohesiveness.
