Parthian Nobles Military (Recruitment) Level 2

Infantry Tents

Organising levies requires planning and space.

Mustering a force required careful planning. Levies were often expected to provide their own arms, such as spear and shield, or javelins and even bows. If this was not done, they would have to be outfitted at the expense of the state treasury. This took time, and the easiest way to get everyone organised and equipped was in temporary camps. Dependent on circumstances and population, permanent quarters or barracks for levies would be built. Barrack-based troops could be used to supplement town watches or to patrol borders and guard trade routes. Even so, conscript levies were usually poorly trained, and more lightly equipped than noble, professional or mercenary soldiers.

1	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Eas_Elite_Persian_Archers) Shivatir-i Parsig (Elite Persian Archers) The bow and the spear make the man who can use them doubly dangerous.

2	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Eas_Hillmen) Kofyaren (Hyrkanian Hillmen) Verkhana Kofyaren, or Hyrkanian Hillmen, are bands of warriors from the various clans of Hyrkania in northern Persia. These men are adept at guerrilla warfare and can serve as fierce light infantry. They wear simple tunics and are armed with spears, axes and shields. They are fierce warriors and will give a good account of themselves, but more disciplined infantry will get the better of them in combat.

3	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Eas_Javelinmen) Zubindar-i Payahdag (Eastern Skirmishers) These men risk their lives by closing with the enemy while carrying only the lightest of equipment. Most armies use poorly equipped levies as skirmishers, very often as javelinmen, since these troops require relatively little training and financial investment, relying mostly on widespread natural skills and scant gear.

4	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Eas_Par_Sword) Arteshtar-i Pahlavig (Parthian Men-at-Arms) Once their javelins have struck, these Parthians are able to finish off any survivors.

5	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Eas_Parthian_Foot_Archers) Thanvare Pahlavig (Parthian Foot Archers) If a Parthian can see it, he will shoot at it.
5	175	175	548	548				9	165	5	15	21	7	6	26	1	20	40
6	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Eas_Persian_Hoplites) Arteshtar-i Kardakan-i Parsig (Persian Hoplites) The Kardaka are armed with a long thrusting spear, and they also carry the large hoplon-shaped shield known as the aspis. They generally wear iron scale armour, but any rudimentary armour, including bronze scales, linen and even quilted cloth can suffice depending on individual wealth or the available equipment of local armouries. These well-drilled, close-order infantry form the core of most eastern armies.

7	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Eas_Persian_Light_Archers) Thanvare Parsig (Persian Bowmen) Archers should be valued for ability to strike down a distant foe.
7	175	175	508	508				9	165	5	15	18	7	6	22	1	20	35
8	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Par_Archers) Marda Shivatir (Mardian Archers) These archers are lightly armoured with quilted linen cuirasses. Trained from birth in the use of the deadly eastern composite bow, these men know their worth and are often found among the Parthian garrisons and in their field armies.
8	175	175	904	904				9	165	5	15	24	11	8	35	6	20	45
9	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Par_Eastern_Axemen) Tabargane Eranshahr (Parthian Axemen) Armed with the sagaris, or the Persian pick-axe" (ironically being Scythian in origin) and a bundle of javelins, these axemen are prepared for guerilla tactics. They are called Takâbarâ in Parthian history and will later form the core of the Sassanid heavy infantry."
9	300	300	443	443								30	11	13	44	1	20	55
10	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Par_Swordmen) Parthohellenikoi Thureophoroi (Partho-Hellenic Infantry) These thureophoroi are little different from those of Hellenic nations. They are recruited from garrison soldiers of the numerous Parthian cities in western Iran and Mesopotamia, and are often descended from Greeks, or even deported or captured Romans. These medium infantry are armed with a thrusting sword and a thureos shield, and wear relatively light quilted leather or linen armour as well as helmets.
