Mauryan Empire Minor Settlement (Iron) Level 2

Eastern Village (Iron)

An established village, growing by hard toil and devout effort.

Small farming settlements were the backbone of ancient civilisations in the east, feeding the great cities such as Antioch and Seleucia. Situated to exploit good land, fishing, mining or quarrying, defence was often too expensive to be more than a secondary consideration. As the populations of the great cities increased, surplus food from these farming communities became essential. As small military garrisons were positioned to protect valuable resources and trade routes, there was a slow growth of many hamlets into towns, as people and trade passed.

1	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Crossbows) Gastraphetes (Crossbow Infantry) This unit is the forerunner of medieval arbalesters. The gastraphetes crossbow, however, is more a handheld siege weapon than a battlefield weapon. The army of Syracuse was one of the first to use this weapon, with one unit of psiloi under the tyrant Dionisyus I. Later, this weapon would find its way into the Macedonian army of Alexander, used during several sieges by specially trained soldiers to kill city defenders.

2	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).""""

3	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_10_Greek_Colonist_Levies) Sikeliotai Pantodapoi (Syracusan Colonist Levies) The heritage of the citizen-soldier runs deep in all Greeks, no matter what their home.

4	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_10_Italian_Levies) Sikelioi Milites (Sicilian Levies) Angry Sicilians with spears should never be dismissed lightly.

5	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_10_Italian_Slingers) Sikelioi Sphendonetai (Sicilian Slingers) Even in the hands of levies, slings are dangerous weapons.

6	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_12_North_Iberian_Axemen) Clona Tekonac (Asturian Axemen) The Astures and Cantabrii are groups of indigenous tribes with similar Celtic-influenced but distinctive cultures, well-known for their fierceness, lust for freedom, and indomitable character.
6	300	300	797	797								38	11	11	70	6	20	40
7	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_12_North_Iberian_Illergetan_Soldiers) Milites Ilergetum (Illergetan Soldiers) These Iberians wear a helmet of typical Ilergetan design, with the characteristic neck guard, padded armour and large scutum adopted from the Gallic tribes across the Pyrenees. For weapons, they use javelins and a longsword, most likely imported from Gaul through the Greek colony of Emporion. Greek and Phoenician elements are also abundant in their culture, foreign motifs being common in their art. While not an elite contingent in the Ilergetan army, these troops are good quality. They are brave and relatively well-equipped, dependable line infantry.

8	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_12_North_Iberian_Levies) Gestikapoinann (Asturian Levies) Gestikapoinann are equipped with light leather armour combined with a small bronze breastplate, a leather galea helmet, and a rather large shield that gives them their name.
8	300	300	452	452								24	9	10	52	3	20	35
9	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_12_North_Iberian_Skirmishers) Clona Gosnasio (Cantabrian Skirmishers) These warriors are the most poorly armed men of the northern Iberian Celts, and as such make up the bulk of the forces those tribes can field in a time of war.

10	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_17_Egyptian_Archers) Machimoi Toxotai (Egyptian Archers) All men serve the Pharaoh to the limits of their ability, even humble bowmen.

11	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_17_Egyptian_Levies) Machimoi (Egyptian Levies) Levies are plentiful, and can stand in battle when properly commanded.
11	300	300	562	562								26	9	11	66	4	20	30
12	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_2_Britannic_Ambushers) Corio Runo (Brythonic Hidden Warriors) Unexpected warriors with javelins and swords are useful to any warlord.
12	300	300	571	571								38	11	17	69	1	20	35
13	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_2_Briton_Slingers) Corio Telamon (Britannic Slingers) A good slinger is worth his weight in slingstones, many times over.
13	175	175	653	653				6	190	6	20	18	7	6	43	1	20	25
14	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_23_hellenic_medium_inf) Thureophoroi Indohellenikoi (Indo-Hellenic Thureos Spears) These spearmen are the lightest component of the regular Indo-Greek phalanx line, equipped with a fairly light linothorax and pteryges, and an equally light helm, though a heavy thureos shield and bronze greaves afford them substantially greater defensive coverage then the traditional hoplitai of distant Hellas.
14	200	200	968	968								28	9	11	71	12	20	55
15	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_23_hellenic_peltasts) Peltastai Indohellenikoi (Indo-Hellenic Peltasts) Gone is the close phalanx formation and the long spear, replaced by a somewhat looser but more skilled melee formation. They wear Phrygian style helmets, light cotton Thracian trousers, and carry javelins, in addition to a smaller and lighter shield. The Indo-Greeks have adapted quite well to the environment of India and have prospered. Many have become Buddhists, though they still remain fierce warriors, true to their Hellenic forefathers.

16	120	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (AOR_23_iranian_light_cav) Kamboja Asvaka Ksatriya (Indo-Iranian Light Cavalry) Master horsemen and horse traders, Kambojas never leave an opportunity to plunder using their light cavalry. Living on both sides of the Khyber Pass, they are a part of the Arya races which stormed and conquered India, some 1500 years before. Their helmet is an evolved Boiotian one, and their primary cuirass is a quilted silk one. Their weapons are clearly Hellenic: a round aspis shield, a short kontos spear that could be held underarm in a couched stance, and a sturdy kopis for when the spear gives way.""

17	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_23_Persian_Archers) Thanvare Payahdag (Persian Archers) Archers should be valued for ability to strike down a distant foe.
17	175	175	508	508				9	165	5	15	18	7	6	22	1	20	25
18	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_23_Persian_Levies) Gund-i Palta (Persian Levies) Cheap spearmen are not necessarily poor spearmen and should make any horseman behave with a little respect.
18	300	300	351	351								22	9	11	52	1	20	35
19	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_31_Cappadocian_Levies) Kappadokioi Haploi (Cappadocian Levies) Levies can fight and are relatively cheap to maintain, but lack skill and conviction.
19	300	300	351	351								22	9	11	52	1	20	35
20	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_31_Galatian_Levies) Galatai Lugoae (Galatian Levies) The chance to win glory and position makes these men fierce opponents.
20	300	300	512	512								27	9	11	78	3	20	35
21	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (AOR_5_Germanic_Hunters) Skutjanz (Germanic Hunters) A deer or a man: the target still needs killing.
21	175	175	528	528				9	165	5	15	21	11	6	29	1	20	25
22	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_7_Alpine_Levies) Noricene Lugoae (Alpine Levies) While ill-disciplined, these men are ferocious fighters in search of honour.
22	300	300	496	496								21	9	10	65	4	20	30
23	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (ind_levy_spearmen) Sainika (Indian Levy Spearmen) Most of these warriors are dressed in their everyday clothing, which includes loincloths, skirts, and short-sleeved shirts. The majority fight bare-chested, however. Spears and shields are cheap and easy to make, and spearmen make up a large part of the melee infantry.
23	300	300	351	351								22	9	10	52	1	20	35
24	200	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (ind_skirmishers) Ksipati Sainika (Indian Skirmishers) Most of these light skimishers are dressed in their everyday clothing, which includes loincloths, skirts, and short-sleeved shirts. The majority fight bare-chested, armed with daggers and throwing spears. These troops require relatively little training and financial investment, relying mostly on widespread natural skills and scant gear, while still providing some useful service.
24	200	200	449	449				14	85	8	5	26	10	10	54	1	20	35
25	200	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (ind_slingers) Kseptrayah (Indian Tribal Slingers) These slingers from the mountain and forest tribes carry small leather slings, just as easily used for hunting game as for hunting men. They carry no shields, as they do not intend to close with their prey until already downed. Nonetheless, they carry simple wooden clubs, useful for disposing their injured prey, but which can also be used for self-defence in melee, should the situation call for it. As speed and flexibility are key to their battlefield tactics, they wear no cumbersome armour, and their dress is the same simple clothing that they would wear on the hunt, or out foraging.
25	200	200	442	442				6	190	5	20	15	11	6	25	1	20	35
26	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (ind_spearmen) Kauntikas (Indian Spearmen) These men, armed with spears and shields, are the mainstay of the Indian infantry. Some of the warriors wear a simple armoured corselet, made from strips of hardened leather. Their spears, which they wield in an underarm position, are made of wood or bamboo, with iron spearheads.
26	300	300	420	420								27	9	10	56	3	20	45
27	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (ind_tribal_swordsmen) Thazhvar Sirupadai (Dravidian Sickle-Swordsmen) The Dravidian Hindu tribes, inhabiting regions of southern India, are fearsome warriors, wielding the Aruvaazh (or Sickle-Sword), a single-sided heavy sword. They wear no armour, much like the North Indian tribes. These men are more spiritual and fanatical, hence they are very warlike in nature. Their attitude gives them tirelessness and ferocity in battle.
