Sarmatians loved their cavalry, fielding thousands at a time, and none were more favoured than their heavy cataphracts. Wielding the kontos, a very long spear used two-handed, with both horse and rider clad from head to foot in armour, they were capable of smashing through the toughest of enemies.

In SPQR, the kontos armed cataphracts are especially dangerous on the charge. The spears gain the 'Lethal 3' special rule for the duration of any melee action in which the wielders have charged.

Contains 6 cavalry in Warlord Resin.
