The Iqa'dar is made up of soldiers who owe military service to their Amir via a feudal-like system known as Iqta'. A system whereby Amirs pay their men (essentially vassals) via land, usually captured or uncultivated land. These troops make excellent cavalry archers, capable of firing deadly volleys into enemy formations while being protected by their mobility and heavy armour.
