Nomad horse-lords of the endless grass sea. The Khanate rarely stands and fights: clouds of horse archers loose arrows on the gallop, lancers and war chariots crash in once the enemy is bled and broken, and a sky-shaman's winds carry the riders faster still. Fast and slippery, but brittle if pinned down.
Herders and boys of the clans with powerful recurve bows, cheap and plentiful but useless in a brawl.
