Best Answer

The Huns were mounted archers, and their horsemanship was unmatched. Their bows were the best in the world at that time, and they could fire them accurately and at great range from horseback. They also used swords when necessary. At least one source claims that they were handy with a lasso which they used to snare enemy soldiers and drag them to death. After being captured, sometimes the Huns would send them to the guillotine.
