Guess what,

they were created to counter the Sassanid Cataphracts in Persia. Didn't do them much good, though.

Gen. Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 22:32, November 10, 2018 (UTC) true, but its pretty much proof of how some nations react with heavy cavalry toward a cavalry-based nation.

Also, the cataphracts did do some damage, and Byzantium is still quite renowned for that.
