175 Gastraphetes
Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Crossbows)
Gastraphetes
(Crossbow Infantry)

This unit is the forerunner of medieval arbalesters. The gastraphetes crossbow, however, is more a handheld siege weapon than a battlefield weapon. The army of Syracuse was one of the first to use this weapon, with one unit of psiloi under the tyrant Dionisyus I. Later, this weapon would find its way into the Macedonian army of Alexander, used during several sieges by specially trained soldiers to kill city defenders.

175 Kestrosphendones
Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Dart_Slingers)
Kestrosphendones
(Dart Slingers)

The kestros is a dart thrown by a specially made sling, or propelled by a staff on a sling. It takes a long time to reload, but allows for more deadly and accurate shots than any other weapon of the time if correctly used, thanks to the shape of the darts, which can fly straight and precise trajectories. This weapon is mentioned in a Polybian account about new weapons in the army of Perseus, shortly before the last open confrontation between the Macedonians and the Roman Republic (169-168 BCE).""""

200 Pezoi Brettioi
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_10_Sicily_Bruttian_Infantry)
Pezoi Brettioi
(Bruttian Infantry)

The Bruttii come from the southern extremity of Italy. These Bruttian troops are dependable medium infantry. They carry two pila, which they throw before engaging in close combat with their swords. They are well armoured with a variety of bronze pectorales, typical of the Oscan warrior class. Their helmets show Greek and Italian influence, known as Italo-Attic. They fought for Pyrrhus during his invasion of Italy.

Aichmetai Leukanoi
(Lucanian Light Infantry)

The Aichmetai Leukanoi are equipped with javelins, a knife and a small shield. Their speed is their best and only armour. They allied themselves with Pyrrhus of Epirus when he invaded, but were defeated and subjugated by the Romans after the Pyrrhic War.

200 Moriuoroi
Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Arevakos_Heavy_Infantry)
Moriuoroi
(Celtiberian Heavy Infantry)

These soldiers are men of station who have a stake in the fate of their oppida, and will fight to the death to protect their social status, and the honour and independence of their people � the Celtiberian fanatical defence of their lands is legendary. As warriors, they are used to the relatively low-intensity warfare of raiding enemy tribes, but also quite familiar with marching abroad in large numbers to serve as mercenaries in the wars that regularly consume the Mediterranean.

300 Retukenoi
Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Arevakos_Medium_Spear)
Retukenoi
(Celtiberian Spearmen)

They may be potters, cobblers, and farmers when not called to arms, but this should not give one reason to dismiss their potential as warriors. The Retukenoi may not have the blue blood of their comrades, nor the swords and high-crested helmets, but they will still hold the line when asked, they will still pepper the enemy with javelins, and they will still run down and trample all those who seek to put a yoke on their people.

300 Iberi Milites
Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Arevakos_Spear)
Iberi Milites
(Celtberian Light Spearmen)

These men are warriors that are levied when there is dire need for it. Recruited from all professions of Iberian society, they form a surprisingly reliable and versatile militia. As with many warriors in Iberia, they use the usual combination of javelin and spear to fight.

300 Iberi Caetrati
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ibe_Arevakos_Sword)
Iberi Caetrati
(Celtiberian Light Infantry)

Caetrati are a deceptive type of infantry. Able light troops, they can skirmish while softening their enemy before closing in for hand-to-hand combat. Four things contribute to this capability: their agility on the battlefield, their all-metal heavy javelins ("soliferrum"), the traditional Iberian ferocity, and their superb swordsmanship.
