The '''Lance Knight''' (Japanese: {{hl|ランスナイト|Ransunaito}} ''Lance Knight'') is a class of [[lance (weapon)|lance]]-using soldiers riding on horseback, similar to the [[Cavalier]] class. They first appeared in {{FE4}} and its direct sequel {{FE5}}, but were absent in the [[GBA]] games. Later, they reappeared in {{FE9}} and {{FE10}}.  
The '''Lance Knight''' or '''Lance Cavalier''' (Japanese: {{hl|ランスナイト|Ransunaito}} ''Lance Knight'') is a class of [[lance]]-using soldiers riding on horseback, similar to the [[Cavalier]] class.

Later, they reappeared in {{title|Path of Radiance}}, {{title|Radiant Dawn}} and {{title|Engage}}.  


Lance knights are very capable and useful units. Since they ride on horseback, they can move quickly and have useful stats in all categories, except for resistance. Therefore, like most physical units, they are very vulnerable to magic attacks. In ''Thracia 776'', they can [[dismount]] from their horses to use [[sword]]s, traverse certain terrain, or for other purposes. Also, in all games, they can move again after most actions; this is represented with the [[Canto]] skill in ''Radiant Dawn''.

In {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, they promote to the [[Duke Knight]] class. Later, in {{title|Path of Radiance}}, lance knights can become [[paladin]]s and gain the use of another weapon. Finally, in {{title|Radiant Dawn}}, they become [[Lance Paladin|lance paladins]] and can further promote to the [[Silver Knight]] class.
