Nogai (veteran)

For the player's companion, see Nogai.

Nogai (veterans) are veteran regional mercenary cavalry of the Crimean Khanate.

Tactics[]

Despite looking like very light melee cavalry, they are very tough lighting strikers - this and having well over 100 in all melee proficiencies allows them to do well in sieges as well as run down any cavalry, making them great niche troops tailored to that purpose.

Stats and Equipment[]

Note: Troops have a set of default stats; at the beginning of a new game, these stats are randomly adjusted for each type of troop. The following is the default set for this troop as seen within the game code and may not reflect the specific stats you will see during actual gameplay. For more information, see troop stats.

Trivia[]

They most likely hail from the Nogai Horde, a confederation of several Turkic and Mongol peoples living in northern Dagestan, located east of the in-game overland map. The Nogai were historically allied to the Crimean Khanate and frequently raided Russian settlements together.
