Oglans are light cavalrymen of the Crimean Khanate.
Tactics
Oglans are extremely lightly armored and not particularly hardy. Oglans are probably best employed in hit and run lance attacks and should avoid getting stuck in melee. Using them to support and follow up heavy cavalry, like the Asak Bey, is a good strategy. They forego nearly all armour in exchange for huge attack in the form of a couched lance. Very few Crimean Khanate troops use lances due to their horses. They are meant for tight turns in the hilly steppes, not straight charges.
