Illyrian Levy Footmen
Passable skirmishers, but do not expect these untrained conscripts to last long in battle.Conscript troops from the Adriatic coast. Some may have experience as coastal pirates and raiders, but the vast majority are peasant farmers coerced into service for their king. Offered only a shield, some javelins, and a week's rations, these men are often armed with implements taken from the fields. A decent harassing force, but their low morale and lack of armor make them unsuited for front-rank combat.
