Illyrian Spear Warband
Without the promise of gold and threat of death, these men would likely turn to banditry.They may be organized as a military unit, but these men are still little more than an armed mob. Hard lives spent fending off barbarian raids and coastal pirates have tempered these men into something approaching martial competence. However, their loyalty is suspect as they would likely turn to banditry without the promise of gold or the threat of death for desertion..
