Syracuse (Occupied)

Strategic Hellenistic capital.

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	175	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).""""

4	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Italian_Slingers) Sikelioi Sphendonetai (Sicilian Slingers) Even in the hands of levies, slings are dangerous weapons.

5	200	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.

6	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Sicily_Lucanian_Light_Infantry) 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.

7	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (cel_boii_clubmen) Ordoroi (Boii Clubmen) These warriors are among the poorest in Boii society, but they are powerfully built and courageous. They use a wood mace or a club with a heavy metal or bone head, serving as a front-line assault troops.

8	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (cel_boii_levy_spearmen) Bagaudoi (Boii Levy Spearmen) Most of the time, only warriors regularly fight in battle. In the worst periods, however, when the tribe is under threat from their dangerous and aggressive neighbours, or when their convoys are attacked, every able man is called to arms. These levies can also be recruited to reinforce the lines, like in any Celtic battle line.

9	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (cel_boii_slingers) Acaunoroas (Boii Slingers) Slingers are some of the most common light support infantry. Cheap to equip and recruit among shepherds and hunters, the poor but skilled peasants are never short of ammunition.
