Riding is a tier one technology that unlocks the Rider, a unit with more movement but less defence than the Warrior.

The Oumaji tribe starts with Riding.

For Aquarion, Riding unlocks the Amphibian, a special unit that can move on water and replaces the Rider, and movement on shallow water. (This allows Aquarion to make Boats using captured Ports without researching Sailing.)

For Cymanti, Riding unlocks the Hexapod, an agile, high-attack, but low-health special unit that replaces the Rider.

Riding's branches in the technology tree are focused on "destructive aspects."[1]
