Cothique Boarding Action by Cavalry

#1 Post by Karak Norn Clansman »

Please move if subforum is ill chosen.

Uniforms and Heraldry of the High Elves contain an unforgettable line that turned Cothique, from a blank slate heavily ravaged during the Sundering, to my favourite Elven princedom. The seafaring excentrics of Cothique use cavalry in boarding actions. Bonkers!

To my surprise and delight, I discovered that the hobby artist AutumnArchfey today released a piece depicting this very thing. Behold:

Anyone collecting Cothique around here? :D

That is totally bonkers.

Though I've heard someone describe roman naval tactics as "they mounted giant boarding planks on their ships and turned naval battles into land battles" so maybe that's the idea here...
