Horse Pens

The noble horse has much to teach us.

Horses played an important role in Celtic society, both spiritually and practically. Many Roman writers freely admitted that the Celts were excellent horsemen, and they went as far as calling Celtic mercenaries the best cavalry in the Roman army. The Romans even adopted a Celtic deity in the hope that she would bestow the equine knowledge and skill of the Celts upon Rome. Epona is one of very few deities to be accepted into the Roman pantheon without change, although her role did develop over time. Eventually, she provided protection for all those who worked with horses and not just the animals themselves. She was a popular deity among the Roman cavalry, and her cult spread across Europe wherever the Romans had cavalry garrisons.

Mezenai
(Dacian Horse Skirmishers)

These horsemen form the mounted counterparts of the Komatai war bands. They ride into battle in studded leather armour and trousers, and carry javelins and short swords. Their nimble horses allow for very good performance in any type of terrain; they are often used to screen flanks and pursue broken enemy formations.

Tarabostes
(Dacian Cavalry)

The Tarabostes are mounted warbands comprised of warriors, usually veterans, attached to a war chief. They often form the main volunteer force for pillaging raids. Attached to the Getic nobility, these warriors often have better equipment than their fellow Getic warriors. They are armoured with chainmail and large oval shields. They carry a spear and the sica blade. They are fearsome, well-armoured, all-round cavalry that look upon war as a class affair.

175 Komatai Sphendonetai
Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Dac_Slingers)
Komatai Sphendonetai
(Dacian Slingers)

These skirmishers are a valuable addition to any Dacian army and can perform superbly in rough terrain. They carry no armour to speak of, except small round shields, and are armed with slings and a dagger. They are usually very young men and their role is merely to try and force the enemy into acting rashly; however, troops lacking armour can still pay dearly facing when them.
