Massalia (Occupied)

Gateway to Gaul.

Even in the ancient world, cities grew up in places where people had already been living for a long time because the sites were defensible, controlled river crossings, had natural resources nearby or were safe from floods and other natural disasters. Cities, despite their rulers’ best intentions, were rarely planned. There might be sections where public buildings stood by broad, open streets and temples were laid out in magnificent splendour, and patrician dwellings hid rich opulence behind bland frontages. But equally likely, if you walked a few paces in the wrong direction, you would be guaranteed to find a maze of twisty backstreets, cheek-by-jowl houses, and run-down slums, alehouses, whorehouses and slaughterhouses, all jostling for what little space there was within the walls. The city was the world in miniature, with all the wonder and squalor that implied. Romans and Greeks equally could take civic pride in their urbanity and sophistication, and at the same moment be a little disgusted by the dirt and tawdriness of the back streets only yards away.

1	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_11_Celtic_Levies) Lugoae Vocontae (Celtic Levies) During periods of strife and war, it is sometimes necessary to call upon ordinary citizens to organize as militia. Called Lugoae, militia in Celtic societies are farmers, craftsmen, fishermen, and so on, called to brief military service in periods of crisis. They may train a few times a year to fight, and games and sports encourage a decent level of physicality, but they're still only militia, and can only be trusted to do so much.

2	120	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (AOR_11_Celtic_Light_Cavalry) Vocontae Epos (Vocontii Cavalry) Vocontae Epos constitute the bulk of Vocontii cavalry. Well-trained compared to many of their enemies’ cavalry, they are invaluable to any army. They throw javelins at a distance, depleting an enemy before charging with their main spears. They are trained to throw javelins, charge, and withdraw repeatedly, and they do it well. A bronze helmet, shield, and light weapons may not seem the equipment of any particularly great cavalry, but they are a solid medium cavalry force, capable of running down routers, defeating light cavalry, and skirmishing if necessary.

3	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_11_Celto_Hellenic_Infantry) Keltohellenikoi Thorakitai (Celto-Hellenic Infantry) These shock infantry are Celto-Hellenic 'men-at-arms,' Celtic warriors of a mixed culture. While they are not of especially great station, they are capable warriors fighting in the Celtic manner, in a motley combination of Hellenic and Celtic gear and dress: long Celtic shields, a Greek helmet, a Celtic sword, and javelins. They soften up an opponent with their javelins and charge an enemy once they're weakened with the great force of Celtic warriors.

4	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_11_Greek_Colonist_Levies) Massaloi Pantodapoi (Massilian Colonist Levies) The heritage of the citizen-soldier runs deep in all Greeks, no matter what their home.
4	300	300	562	562								26	9	11	66	4	20	30
5	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Hoplites) Massaloi Hoplitai (Massilian Hoplites) Hoplites: no other word says Greeks at war in quite the same way.
5	200	200	1021	1021								29	9	13	62	12	20	40
6	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Thorax_Hoplites) Massaloi Thorakitai Hoplitai (Massilian Thorax Hoplites) These Massilian warriors are equipped in the traditional hoplite style, sporting heavy chainmail cuirasses.

7	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Carpi_Swordsmen) Carpi Machairaphoroi (Carpi Swordsmen) The Celticisation of western Dacians has led to a bigger number of swordsmen in the Dacian army. These units are skilled and versatile, and the Carpi are one of the most well-known fighting tribes among the Dacians. They are primarily mountaineers living on both sides of the Carpathians, which bear their name.

8	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Dii_Rhomphaiaphoroi) Dii Rhomphaiaphoroi (Dii Falxmen) The Dii, known for their barbaric fierceness and cruelty, have been known to massacre an entire city, including the animals. In battle they prefer the ambush, and their attack is strong enough to break even experienced formations. Equipped with a short falx, a Pelte shield and helmets of Thracian style, the Dii are good shock troops.

9	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Dac_Elite_Skirmishers) Komatai Epilektoi (Elite Dacian Skirmishers) Selected for their better equipment and superior physical abilities, the Komatai Epilektoi are a step beyond the standard Komatai. Equipped with the same studded leather armour worn over trousers and woollen shirts, most of these men also wear a simple iron helmet. They can also afford higher quality shields and better weapons: two heavier, well-made iron throwing spears and a Celtic longsword are fairly standard. With their better equipment, they can stand in a battle line.

10	256	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Dac_Light_Phalanx) Getikoi Stratiotai (Dacian Light Pikemen) The tribes that have contact with the Hellenic poleis on the western shores of the Pontus Euxinus form a distinct breed of warriors. These men are renowned for their ferocity, and all Macedonian expeditions sent against them effectively disappear in the Getic wasteland", Moreover Macedonian kings like Lysimakos knew Getic captivity. Their contact with the Hellenic poleis made them well familiarized with the phalanx formation. These men are equipped with Phrygian helmets, padded leather armour and large oval shields. For weapons, they carry a spear and a sica into battle, similar to most Hellenic phalanx soldiers."

11	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Medium_Sica_Warriors) Epilektoi Sicaphoroi (Dacian Medium Sica Warriors) These medium infantrymen are the chosen ones" amongst the efficient and numerous Sicaphoroi. They are still equipped with a sica as main weapon, and still rely on iron-tipped javelins. They do not have helments, but wear a light and flexible composite leather jacket reinforced by bronze pieces."

12	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Dac_Moesian_Spearmen) Moisoi Doryphoroi (Moesian Spearmen) Moesia is a semi-mountainous, landlocked region. The Moesians are grouped into several tribes and are frequently at war against their neighbors. The choice weapons for these infantrymen are a spear and oval shield. They are sometimes willingly recruited as mercenaries by the Greeks and Macedonians, to avoid their raids on the frontier by denying them their best soldiers.

13	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Dac_Peucini_Skirmishers) Peukini Akontistai (Peucini Skirmishers) Peucini armies mainly consist of lightly equipped infantry. The vast majority of them are skirmishers, with maces and axes as secondary weapons. They have settled in the delta of the Istros (Danube), on an island called Peuce facing the Pontus Euxinus, hence their name.

14	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Sica_Warriors) Komatai Sicaphoroi (Dacian Sica Warriors) The Sicaphoroi, sica bearers," are recruited from the peasantry, and fight with a falx and javelins, in the common way of Getic and Dacian warriors. The Sica is the common short falx used by peasants for harvesting. It is not designed as a true weapon, but over time, a true military version has been developed as a main weapon by experienced warriors."
14	300	300	519	519								34	11	13	69	1	20	45
15	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Dac_Skirm) Dakes Akontistai (Dacian Skirmishers) These skirmishers are used to plague an enemy line with repeated volleys of javelins.
15	175	175	479	479				14	85	8	5	22	11	10	65	1	20	35
16	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Dac_Skirm_ref) Komatai (Dacian Heavy Skirmishers) The Komatai, also called 'daoi' or 'wolves,' make up the bulk of the tribal forces of the Getae. They fight bare-headed to assure the gods of their fervor and willingness to arrive at their side. The Komatai go to battle wearing studded leather armour, trousers and a large oval shield. They also carry with them javelins and a sica. If forced into melee they can hold their own against other light and even some medium infantry.
16	175	175	695	695				15	90	8	7	33	11	11	67	8	20	45
17	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Dac_Spears) Dakes Epistratoi Doryphoroi (Dacian Levy Spearmen) Even the lowliest of Dacians can carry a spear into battle for his people.
