Mounted Yeomen Archers

are a missile cavalry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer with Bretonnia (DLC).
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Stables
==Description==
As they hold such privileged positions as head gaolers and militia sergeants, to become a Yeoman is the highest rank to which a peasant can aspire. It takes many years of dedicated service for Men-at-Arms to be so promoted, and even then only an act of bravery on the battlefield will guarantee ascension. Though no peasant may ride the steeds of the Bretonnian Lords, favoured Yeomen are permitted to ride to battle on draught horses. Such troops will often scout ahead of the main army and keep the Knights informed of enemy movements – a dangerous task, and one which earns no honour, so it is a task that the nobility believe is best performed by peasants. All Men-at-Arms dream of one day becoming a Yeoman, possibly because of the folk stories that tell of Yeomen being raised to Knighthood after performing a great service or some brave deed. The truth is that it is almost unheard of for a peasant to be elevated in this way – the nobility have no wish to sully their ranks with low-born commoners.
==Attributes==
==Strategy==
This unit offers the same benefits as Mounted Yeomen do with the obvious bonus of having ranged attacks. These units are much better at harassing enemy front lines with their ranged attacks and running away before they can be caught.
