These mounted musketeers have superior riding skills, making them an effective attack force.
The Comanche are gifted horsemen with an unmatched understanding of their horses. These skills allow them to cross even rough ground with terrifying speed, and then pepper an enemy with musket balls and tomahawks. They can then quickly withdraw to safety to reload, or rejoin the main body of a tribal army.
When the Spanish left horses in North America, the Comanche quickly recognised their potential, and rebuilt their lives around the animals. Their individual skills on horseback seemed almost magical to their enemies: riding bareback, they could even pick up fallen comrades at the gallop! The Comanche were particularly fond of pinto horses, believing them to be sacred. Pintos were also supposed to give their riders invulnerability in battle.
