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.

120 Edetani Eponereidam
Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Cav)
Edetani Eponereidam
(Edetani Light Cavalry)

These skilled horsemen are extremely agile, which almost makes up for their lack of real protection. Since they wear only a rough tunic and cloak, their caetra shield is their sole defence. As for weapons, they carry a multitude of javelins and a falcata sword as their side-arm.

100 Iberi Lanceari
Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Heavy_Cav)
Iberi Lanceari
(Iberian Armoured Cavalry)

These all-purpose heavy cavalrymen have a staying power on the battlefield that is simply unmatched by all but the most elite cavalry forces. They wear good quality mail armour and carry long Iberian-style ovular shields. Combined with their use of a cavalry spear and falcata, this makes them ideal cavalry for both the charge and fierce melee. These are probably the most versatile heavy cavalry in the world, and their status in the Carthaginian army proves it.

Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Light_Cav)
Equites Caetrati
(Iberian Medium Cavalry)

The men of Sparta will tell you that the simplest meal may breed the strongest of men. The men of Iberia are indeed such men. With silvery steel-tipped spears couched beneath their arms, and gripping the small round caetra shields from whence they take their name, these cavalrymen are renowned beyond their lands for the skills they bring to the battlefield.

120 Iberi Curisi
Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Medium_Cav)
Iberi Curisi
(Iberian Melee Cavalry)

Riding their agile, resilient Iberian horses, these skilled medium cavalrymen are able to perform the role of shock against light troops. They wear bronze helmets and chest plates along with leather armour, which gives them staying power in a melee contest. They carry the normal falcata and caetra combination of the Iberian tribes, which allows them to hold their own in melee, although they are more adept at spearing down fleeing enemies.

100 Edetani Arjos Epones
Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Noble_Cavalry)
Edetani Arjos Epones
(Edetani Noble Cavalry)

The Iberians have a great deal of respect for horses, even worshipping them as divine creatures. In times of war, the horse previously played a minor role, but has gradually progressed from a symbol of prestige, and noble warrior�s ride to the battlefield, to becoming a major presence in the battle itself.

100 Scutarii Epones
Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Ibe_Edetani_Scutarii_Cav)
Scutarii Epones
(Iberian Heavy Cavalry)

Although a common sight in the armies of foreign powers, these horsemen are all the more determined to defend their homelands from foreign domination, combining endurance, loyalty, and discipline, to form a corps of warriors which any army would eagerly have guard its flanks.
