Neosoikoi

Well-equipped docks enable the construction of great fleets.

Shipbuilding, maintenance and having a safe harbour were obviously crucial to the trade and expansion of any Mediterranean people. From 500BC, the Greek trireme was the backbone of Hellenic navies. Up to forty metres long, and powered by a crew of 170 highly trained, professional rowers, the trireme was narrow and light, if a little unstable. Rowers were expected to throw javelins and sling stones while seated so as not to rock the boat! In Piraeus, the port of Athens, up to 750 triremes could be sheltered in nearly 500 neosokoi, or covered hangars, when not in use. The Carthaginians constructed an artificial harbour or 'cothon' to protect their ships from the sea. It is believed that other cothons could be drained to act as dry docks, allowing for ship maintenance.

1	80	Medium Ship / Melee Ship / (Gre_Assault_Trireme_Ath) Trieres - Athenai Epibatoi A trireme is a 37 meter long oared warship (galley) with three decks of oars, developed from the bireme in the 5th century BCE. Popular with Carthaginian, Greek and Roman navies, this is the main warship of the classical age. (Athenian Marines) Athens once ruled an impressive maritime empire, and these soldiers are a remnant of those days. They are equipped with the finest arms and armour, and pack a considerably heavier punch than similar troops.

2	60	Light Ship / Melee Ship / (Gre_Firepot_Bireme_Ath) Fire Pot Dieres - Athenai Epibatoi A fire-pot armed bireme, this 30 meter long oared warship (galley) has two decks of oars and jars of flammable pitch suspended over the bow on long poles. These are dropped onto enemy ships and can quickly ignite the decks. (Athenian Marines) Athens once ruled an impressive maritime empire, and these soldiers are a remnant of those days.

3	100	Light Ship / Transport Ship / (Supply_Ship_Greek) Supply Ship - Supply Crew These merchant ships can carry vast amounts of supplies, and are the best solution to supply forces operating on land. A fleet with a supply ship can supply nearby land forces until the fleet runs out of supplies. Supply lines by sea are generally less expensive than those on land.
