Cavaliers and Champions are level 6 creatures of Castle. They are recruited from Training Grounds.
Cavaliers are upgraded to Champions for free when the hero visits Stables found on the Adventure Map.
Jousting special ability
"The horse-mounted cavalier and champion deal extra impact damage (+5% per hex traveled to creature attacked) when charging into battle." RoE manual
For example, moving five hexes before the attack will increase their damage by 25%. This means their damage can be higher than any level 6's, but Naga Queens and Dread Knights very well compensate that with their specialties.
Pikemen and Halberdiers are immune to this jousting bonus, which means they only suffer the base damage from cavalier and champion.
Heroes with a specialty
- Tyris the Knight has cavaliers as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any cavaliers or champions for each level attained after 6th level, and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
