Auxilia Equites Dalmatae

Roman cavalry power, stationed in the Balkans to meet the nomadic threat head-on.

The ‘Dalmatian horsemen’ hailed from the western Balkans, roughly equivalent to the position of modern-day Croatia. Formed later in the Roman Empire as a temporary adjunct to the Legions, they became known as a ‘vexillationes’ following a reorganisation and expansion of Roman cavalry forces. In the years immediately prior the Legions had taken some heavy losses from the superior horse units of the eastern empires. This reorganisation was almost certainly an attempt to curb Roman losses and enable them to compete with the enemy's burgeoning cavalry tactics. In any case, the Dalmatae were the largest of the newly-raised vexillationes, and contributed to Claudius II victory over the Goths – a worthy record indeed!
