Jade Lancers

are a melee cavalry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer III.
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Jade Stables
== Description ==
The heavy cavalry of Cathay are the Jade Lancers, mounted soldiers of the great cities. The wealthiest cities like Fu-Chow or Wei-jin can afford large contingents of Jade Lancers, though even the remote cities of the south and west can also usually muster at least a unit of these troops. In addition to being a potent tool in the open field, Jade Lancers train to fight in the constricted streets of their cities, and are able to launch devastating charges through narrow alleyways, across bridges and through the tunnels that pierce the city walls.

== Strategy ==
Cathayan cavalry is poor comparatively to other human factions, and should always be used as a counter to specific threats rather than expected to carry a fight. Jade Lancers do have access to the Devastating Flanker attribute via research, which you should aim to unlock quickly if you have chosen to invest in them. An excellent way to use them is to hold them back in a forest, then spring them on your foe's flankers when they inevitably try and circle around your front line.
