Desert Ancients Rare Unit: Desert Chariots

Desert Chariots:

 

During the height of the reign of the ancient empire of man, the tactics that they employed in battle were unsurpassed, allowing them to sweep over their enemies like the shifting sands over desert bones. One of these tactics was the use of the chariot. Never before seen, the chariot was a revolutionary way to wage war on a destructive scale. The rare and highly valued horses were hitched to wheeled platforms that could traverse the battlefield at unimaginable speeds, outflanking and out fighting the enemy at every point on the field of battle.

 

When the Pharaohs awoke from their dark tombs and towering pyramids, the first units they employed to retake their old domains were chariots. Now pulled by daunting skeletal steeds and driven by elite veterans of the skeletal legions, the chariots are one of the most crucial aspects of the Desert Ancients battlefield prowess.

 

Able to outmatch regular cavalry in head to head combat and able to scythe through even the most elite infantry like a knife through sand, the chariots are a terror on the hot desert plains. Two skeleton veterans operate the structures of death, each one a towering visage of their impressive physical size and battlefield skill in life, now in undeath.

 

They wield ancient and impressive spears that are able to reach out and impale the foe on the razor sharp edges. One of the most impressive creations of man, the chariot is still feared among foes to this day.
