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	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.
3	300	300	562	562								26	9	11	66	4	20	30
4	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Levy_Spearmen) Neizes (Iberian Levy Spearmen) These levies prefer to fight only when their lands are in danger, because they cannot afford to lose what little they have, however they are able to participate in regional plundering against their neighbours if they can obtain some additional wealth through distributing loot after the battle. A precarious life with a simple diet makes a man dangerous; he becomes as cruel as the necessity he calls life.

5	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Light_Inf) Iabarannta (Edetani Light Infantry) These men are hardened warriors and constitute the bulk of Edetani armies. They wear bronze helmets and round bronze breastplates above their short linen tunic. Their main weapons are the spear and the Soliferrum (a full-metal heavy javelin).

6	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Light_Swordsmen) Iberi Caetrati (Iberian 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.
6	300	300	652	652								34	11	15	51	4	20	45
7	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Medium_inf) Loricati Caetrati (Iberian Medium Infantry) The Iberians are famous the world over for their extremely versatile and excellent quality light infantry. Loricati Caetrati are no exception. They have as protection a breastplate and leather armour supplementing their "bascinet" type bronze helm. Fighting with the traditional soliferrum + falcata + caetra set, and more motivated and resilient than greener troops, they are dangerous foes able to strike vulnerable spots in the enemy lines.
7	200	200	1018	1018								38	11	18	61	10	20	60
8	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Scutarii) Scutarii (Iberian Scutarii) These troops are well-equipped medium spearmen, armed with the dreaded all-metal soliferrum javelin, a spear as their main weapon, and a short straight sword. They protect themselves with leather armour and a bronze breastplate. With this equipment and their skills, they make extremely versatile and quick infantry.
8	300	300	747	747								34	9	15	72	6	20	55
9	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Slingers) Karsken (Iberian Slingers) Armed only with their sling and a knife, these slingers are largely unprotected aside from their small wicker buckler. This makes them extremely vulnerable to any troops that can catch them in a melee, and even light cavalry is likely to just run through them without breaking a sweat.
9	175	175	517	517				6	190	5	20	18	7	8	32	1	20	30
10	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Tribesmen) Iberi Lugoae (Iberian Tribesmen) In essence, these tribesmen are a transition between skirmishers and light infantry, for they are relatively more fierce than other peoples' support troops, and expected to be a part of some of the hand-to-hand fighting if given an opportunity. However, armed with a bundle of javelins, a spear, and protected only by a small shield, they should not be confused with real light infantry, and should not be expected to fight a protracted melee against a well-organised and prepared enemy.
