Proving Grounds

A warrior needs a weapon he can rely on.

Due to the tribal practice of making votive offerings to gods of rivers and waterways, many bronze artefacts have been discovered at the bottom of lakes and rivers all over Europe. The River Thames in London, England must have held particular significance to the local tribes as a number of bronze work pieces have been discovered on the bottom over the years. The Waterloo Helmet, a ceremonial piece with two horns, was discovered in 1868, and the Wandsworth and Battersea shields were also recovered from the river and now reside in the British Museum. Like the helmet, the Battersea Shield is thought to be a ceremonial piece as there is no evidence of damage and no sign that it was ever attached to a wooden base, which would have given it the strength it required to be battle ready.

1	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.

2	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Loricati_Scutarii) Loricati Scutarii (Iberian Armoured Scutarii) The armour of these skilled men is better than their mostly lower class counterparts, as they can afford scale armour and bronze greaves (or are sponsored by a noble). They carry ovular shields and the famous Gladius Hispaniensis, making them excellent anti-infantry soldiers.

3	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.

4	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.
4	300	300	747	747								34	9	15	72	6	20	55
5	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Skirm) Gaesamica (Iberian Javelinmen) The Gaesamica (Guy-sah-mek-ah; "Javelinmen") constitute the majority of Iberian warriors who fight as light spearmen. They're fast, proficient at flanking manoeuvres and harassing the enemy line before joining the melee.

6	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ibe_Edetani_Noble_Fighters) Iberi Arjos (Iberian Nobles) These men form the highest social class among Iberians. They are wealthy and as such, well-equipped. Their main weapons is the lance and the falcata. They are courageous and skilled, but like any cavalry, they need to use their speed to escape the grasp of spear infantry.
