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	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_11_Celto_Hellenic_Infantry) Keltohellenikoi Thorakitai (Celto-Hellenic Infantry) These shock infantry are Celto-Hellenic 'men-at-arms,' Celtic warriors of a mixed culture. While they are not of especially great station, they are capable warriors fighting in the Celtic manner, in a motley combination of Hellenic and Celtic gear and dress: long Celtic shields, a Greek helmet, a Celtic sword, and javelins. They soften up an opponent with their javelins and charge an enemy once they're weakened with the great force of Celtic warriors.
3	200	200	1263	1263								39	10	15	73	16	20	55
4	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.
4	300	300	562	562								26	9	11	66	4	20	30
5	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Hoplites) Massaloi Hoplitai (Massilian Hoplites) Hoplites: no other word says Greeks at war in quite the same way.
5	200	200	1021	1021								29	9	13	62	12	20	40
6	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Thorax_Hoplites) Massaloi Thorakitai Hoplitai (Massilian Thorax Hoplites) These Massilian warriors are equipped in the traditional hoplite style, sporting heavy chainmail cuirasses.
6	200	200	1117	1117								30	9	13	70	14	20	40
7	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ste_Horse_Archers) Duna Asya (Saka Horse Archers) Living a tough life, Saka nomads learn to ride as soon as they can walk, and they are masterful horsemen. Their primary weapon is the composite bow and the steppe pony they ride is a hardy beast, though small and shaggy.

8	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Ste_Saka_Heavy_Hoplites) Hoplitai Hellenikon (Saka Heavy Hoplites) The Hoplitai Hellenikon are an extraordinarily heavily armoured evolution of the ancient hoplites of Hellas, combining the traditional Hellenic phalanx with the superb defense afforded by the preferred scale armour of the steppes. They are among the most disciplined of infantry forces, lumbering forward under the cover of their extended spears, thick helmets, bronze greaves, and massive hoplons, while each man's torso is encased in a heavy suit of scale.

9	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ste_Spear) Halstehveyyau (Saka Spearmen) These Saka spearmen wear no armour, and carry a shield and spear to battle. They are passable infantry and can hold their own against other low-quality infantry of a similar nature. However, due to their lack of armour, they should not be employed against the heavier infantry of settled peoples.
9	200	200	405	405								26	9	10	58	1	20	45
10	200	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ste_Tribesmen) Payai Dunai (Saka Foot Archers) They carry are a fairly large recurved composite bow which, with its relatively longer siyahs and body, shows a deviation from the traditional Scythian recurved composite bow and a transition to the later “Sassanian” and Hun types of more eastern steppe nomads, enabling them to outrange, outshoot, and out-power steppe nomad horse archers."
10	200	200	957	957				9	165	4	15	27	9	10	56	6	20	45
11	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ste_Young_Axes) Saka Tapabara (Saka Axemen) In addition to their iron sagaris axes, these warriors carry fire-hardened javelins. For protection, they carry square reed shields reinforced with leather, which, though light, are very resistant to missiles. They are best used for flanking already engaged foes or as lightly armoured shock troops, but if tied up in a lengthy melee against more organised or professional enemy warriors, they will soon break and flee.
