Luigino and thegoat I agree, that was my original answer as the benefit..you can take the original model, which is awesome. I'm merely pointing out there is no real rules benefit for upgrading the additional steeds, again taking the chariot is solely for coolness. apart from the +2 attacks  --------------But that's my other point. Is +2 Attacks at WS2, S3 actually worth +15 points and a 50mm base width increase? I'd say no. Just as the fly upgrade is not worth the points, because its actually just Hover or +2 movement. |

You would no longer risk losing it to dangerous terrain when moving through it or charging units behind an obstacle, no? |

When you do the upgrades to Arkhan's chariot you're paying a hefty +45 points. |

Yep, my empire horses have kicked more wounds than my knights have! It must be because the universe finds it hilarious and it pleases the dice gods! Yeah, some joker keeps issuing my Bretonnians rubber lances, so my horses are my most reliable damage producers too! |
