Horse Ranch

A well-trained horse is worth its weight in cattle.

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.

1	100	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Dac_Bodyguards) Phylakes Daoi (Royal Bodyguard Cavalry) The strong ties developed between the royalty and the Ktistai priesthood make these zealots the perfect recruits for the king's guard. The beltistai's loyalty is unquestionable and their ferocity unmatched. Indeed, the Ktistai are so close to the king, that his royal successor will either be chosen from their ranks, or become pontifex maximus of the priesthood. Those recruited for the Beltistai Korps must have been trained from infancy, and the secretive nature of their order will render them ideal for the purposes of any strong ruler.

2	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Dac_Bow_Horsemen) Dakes Hippotoxotai (Dacian Horse Archers) Horse archers should never be underestimated: enemies always respect them.

3	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Dac_Light_Cavalry) 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.

4	100	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Dac_Med_Cavalry) 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.

5	100	Cavalry / Shock Cavalry / (Dac_Noble_Horsemen) Dakes Aristoi Hippeis (Dacian Noble Cavalry) These noblemen are well able to smash an enemy line, given the chance to charge.

6	120	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Dac_Spear_Horsemen) Dakes Hippeis (Dacian Cavalry) The cavalrymen can do worthwhile damage if they get in amongst the enemy.
