Notes

Fandom's (challenge-walled) Charioteer stub, read via the MediaWiki API, describes a unique mechanic not in any other source: Charioteers ride a chariot pulled by two horses and can charge forward to strike units in their path, gaining +10 Defense until the next player phase; the charge ability has 5 uses per map. It also states Charioteers cannot avoid (dodge) enemy attacks.
Growth workbook (u/brankadon, unverified): Charioteer's Path raises the class growths at level 35 and again at level 45, and the mount's bond-5 growth bonus counts twice. A level 45 Charioteer with Rocinan has a class growth total of 190 (180 with any other horse), the highest of any class; the next highest in the workbook are Elephant Rider (Master) with the Saramis War Elephant at 140 and the Divine Cavalier with Rocinan at 135. Class and mount growth only, not including the unit's own growths. The workbook's elephant figure uses 5% mount bonuses; the guide's held mount data (two Japanese guides) gives 10%, which makes that Elephant Rider total 170.
