Spear Veterans

The spear is an extension of the arm. These men know only battle, and victory.

In the Ostrogothic Kingdom, much like the Roman Empire it replaced, veteran soldiers who had completed their service could be asked to come back in times of need. Usually affiliated to their old commander, they were afforded great respect and honour because of their previous service. As examples to the common soldier, they were often immediately promoted and given a pay rise. Crucially, veterans were exempt from many of the mundane and laborious tasks of army life such as digging latrines, building roads and making camp.
