Like this but more soldier & compact Mongol bow.





or something like this.|||
This would actually be even more interesting as a heavy, semi-rare t2 unit. driver, 2 to 3 archers, mobile guard tower.
It would actually be about 1/3 to 3/5 of the size of the shown vlog dragon. Which is rather big, but fine as a high-tier unit.|||my vote gos for Gigantorider. with some shiny armour, offcourse.|||ground-bird cavalry rules|||Bear Cavalry > Ostrich Cavalry
|||Tauntauns are cool, and fun to pronounce.
|||There needs to be a cavalry in the game that consists of a smaller person riding on a larger person. Possibly both riding on an even larger person.|||Bear cavalry is cool and all of that, but it doesn't hold up to a giant ostrich/featherd dinosaur cavalry. No, not those cute final fantasy giant ridable chicks.||| Going to disagree with you on that one.
Why not just have bear as heavy cavalry, and ostrich/dinosaur as light cavalry?|||its not ostrich cavalry. Its giant ostrich -> gigantoraptor size, both of which are bigger than bear cavalry. :p|||Wikipedia:
Arctodus simus, also known as the giant short-faced bear, is an extinct species of bear. The genus Arctodus is known as the short-faced or bulldog bears. It was native to prehistoric North America from about 800,000 years ago, and became extinct about 12,500 years ago. It is one of the largest bear in the fossil record and was among the largest mammalian land predators of all time. The type specimen came from Potter Creek Cave in Shasta County, California. [1] Males from the Yukon region - the largest representatives of the species - would have stood about 1.6 m (5.3 ft) at the shoulder (on all fours), 3.7 m (12 ft) upright and may have weighed about 700 kg (1543 lb).[2]|||gigantoraptor weight in at around 3000 pounds, or 1.3 tons, and that is from a young adult. Wired article Both kodiak and polar bears only reach around half of that, roughly 1500lbs or 600-700kgs. wkipedia says otherwise though, 2 metric tons

On the topic of (giant) animal cavalry & Co....
*giant* hornless rhino
giant mammoth
And everything else that was very big.
One picture of extreme interest, especially for mobile fortresses, is this image. You could probably fit anywhere between 50 and 150 archers on those...|||MUMAKIL!
Oops, there already is a war boar...
