Mounted Combat - This allows rider to ignore the skill cap placed on combat rolls by the Ride skill The settled tribes of the Crimea provided 20 organised companies of “segban” mounted arquebusiers. I classify the mounted arquebusiers as Dragoons. Like many of the settled units the Segban were probably copied from the Ottomans. Segban is actually a Persian word literally meaning “dog keeper” i.e. keeper of the hounds. This was sometimes Arabized as seyman (singular) and seymaniya (plural). The Ottoman corp of Segban were initially separate from the Janissaries but from 1451 became the 56th Janissary division. Unusually for Janissaries they included both infantry and cavalry. In the 16th century Segban became a term used for mercenaries in Ottoman employee, equipped with firearms.
