The Yabusame is a Japanese light cavalry unit that fires a bow from long range in Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties.
Overview
Edit
Yabusame has one of the the longest range of all cavalry in the game. It is more powerful than most other cavalry archers due to its long range and the bonus damage it inflicts on siege units. Like all of the ranged cavalry units it is also very good against other cavalry unit but is better than most due to its exceptional range. Due to its range can also be used against other cavalry units and melee unit.
Their hit points and attack are not so exceptional but there are many shipment cards which can increase their hit points and attack. Their attack can be stretched to 24 and hit points to 400.

HistoryEdit
Minamoto No Yoritomo, first of Japan’s feudal shoguns, had great respect for the art of Yabusame and worked to establish it as a part of standard military training and practice. During his reign, Minamoto established the Ogasawara School, a specialized institution for teaching the arts of foot and mounted archery. He also started the Tsurugaoka Hachimanguu Yabusame Divine Performance, a showcase for the most highly talented Yabusame archers. The first event was held on August 15, 1187. Since that day the ceremony has been held every year to the present, although it went on temporary hiatus during the Pacific conflicts of World War II.
