'''Cantref''' is the name used for the [[Horseborn]] females and the corresponding base [[class]] for both Hero and Enemy units. They are ranged fighters usually throwing [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javelin javelins].

====Class Attributes====

Units belonging to the Cantref class have the following attributes:

* '''Size:''' 1x1 tile
* '''Movement Range:''' 4 tiles
* '''Attack Range:''' 2-4 tiles (one tile shorter than [[Archer]]s)
* '''Passive Ability:''' Free Roam (see below)
* '''Stats:''' Slightly lower that Horseborn Teulu (males).

====Passive Ability: Free Roam====
While moving, each [[Willpower]] the Horseborn Cantref spends allows her to travel 2 tiles instead of 1.

====Promoted Classes====
The promoted classes stemming from Cantref are '''not''' named. The active abilities available to Cantref are:
* [[File:icon_pin.png|40px]] [[Pin]] — Deals regular damage and reduces target's movement range.
* [[File:icon_poisontipped.png|40px]] [[Poison Tipped]] — Deals (small) Strength damage for 3 [[Round]]s.
[[Derdriu]] starts with Poison Tipped and gains Pin when promoted to Rank 6, whereas [[Canary]] starts with both abilities. Unlike the Teulu, the enemy Cantref units only have access to Pin, at Rank 1 (of 3).

====Enemy Cantref====
During the second part of ''The Banner Saga'' you will fight against regular Horseborn Cantref as well as a version (called Javelineer) with extended attack range, in the battle where you face [[Canary]]'s herd.

====Trivia====

* A cantref was a division of land in medieval Wales.

* Horseborn have mainly Celtic influences: Their names are in Welsh. The term 'horseborn' is a misnomer as they're actually a mix of man and (Irish/Welsh) pony. This incidentally is also why most of them occupy one tile instead of two on the battle grid.
