Vandalic Kingdom (The Last Roman) Melee Cavalry

Vandali Comitatus

'Comitatenses' were originally the late-Roman equivalent of the traditional Legionaries, designed to swoop in and decisively defeat enemy forces already pinned down by 'limitanei', the frontier garrison troops tasked with guarding the 'limes' - the borderlands of the Empire. As the barbarian kingdoms inhabited the cities and infrastructure of the old Roman Empire, they also used much of its military and civil administration, for the sake of practical convenience. This included some military structure; the comitatenses continued to be led by a 'comte', the root of the noble title ‘count’ - itself a Latinised version of 'companion' in reference to Alexander the Great's friends and compatriots. Vandali comitatus were professional soldiers with the skill-at-arms of Roman Legionaries.
