Cavalry Wagon Notes

The wagons are six hundred millimetres wide with a wheel radius of just under half a metre to stay lower to the ground. The storage unit is half a metre high with a canvas cover tied down over the load to keep it dry and safe. The load is tied down within the wagon too. The spoke wheel design makes them much lighter than the usual local wagons using solid wood wheels. The addition of steel rims allows them to ride over rough terrain and last much longer. The addition of steel bearings and sleeves makes for a smooth and quiet ride. The shafts curve up to rest on the horse’s rump with a leather strap in between, it ties to the back of the horse’s saddle. There’s a quick release system to allow the horse and rider freedom in combat. Being not as wide as a horse, short and light, they can go anywhere a horse can, except a deep river. Horses pulling one can keep up with a horse and rider at high speed.

Four-wheeled Wagon is two metres long and used for heavy loads.

Two-wheeled Wagon is one metre long and is the most common one used when conducting an aggressive campaign against the enemy. This is because it’s lighter and puts very little strain on the horse.
