The Kanya Horseman is an Iroquois hand cavalry unit in Age of Empires III: The WarChiefs.

OverviewEdit

The Kanya Horseman has lower hitpoints and attack than the Hussar or Sioux cavalry, and is unique in the fact that it costs food and wood instead of food and coin like other cavalry as well as being slightly cheaper. They do x2.0 vs. Artillery, making them more effective than most hand cavalry vs Artillery. Their siege attack is not as effective as most cavalry however. They are also good for raiding enemy Settlers in the early ages.

HistoryEdit

The Iroquois were a woodland people, so did not live in good horse country. Naturally, they adopted horses from European colonists, but the Six Nation's warrior were usually more comfortable fighting on foot, Despite this, the advantage of horses for scouting and quick raids was so obvious that the Iroquois did use them in warfare when they were needed.
