Re: 'Imperial Culture' (non-canonista)
Pigsticking: Hunting by horseback with lances. This widely spread entertainment is popular among the ruling classes. Not all pigstickers use wild boar, though the more proper consider that the most traditional. Many worlds import wild pig for their game parks. On some worlds there are scheduled events and teams and traditional rivalry often between the "new money" team, and the "old money".
Though it was originally a Solomani sport, it has been widely taken up by Aslan, being very adaptable to their preferred climate.
