Royal Barracks

The training and quartering of elite troops requires the proper surroundings.

After the age of heroes, when fighting had been about individual valour and battles a brawl rather than a planned encounter, armies were organised into disciplined units. With conflicts between the city-states on the rise, and threats from the outside world, the Greeks created the first hoplites around 700BC. These were free citizens, fighting as infantry who provided their own armour and weapons. There was no standard equipment and these soldiers carried shields and armour emblazoned with family symbols handed down over generations. However, the name 'hoplite' derived from the one piece of equipment they did have in common: the hoplon shield. This circular shield was held so as to protect not only the bearer but also the man to his left. As a single mass, hoplites moved in the famous phalanx formation, marching towards the enemy as one solid wall.

7	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Gre_Skirm_Cav) Hippakontistai (Greek Javelin Cavalry). These speedy, light cavalrymen can do good service in harrying the enemy.

8	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Gre_Tarantine_Cav) Tarantinoi Hippeis (Tarantine Cavalry) These light cavalrymen armed with javelins are rightly held in high regard for their skills.

9	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Gre_Thorax_Spears) Thorakitai Doriphoroi (Thorax Spearmen) These warriors are the first line of an army, strong in defence against cavalry with their spears and deadly from range with their javelins.

10	120	Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Gre_Thureos_Cav) Thureophoroi Hippeis (Thureos Cavalry) These mercenary soldiers are wealthy enough to be able to afford horses. While not the heaviest cavalry, they are mobile and carry javelins which allow them to harass nearby enemy formations.

13	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Perg_Chopper) Pergamoi Thureophoroi Machairaphoroi (Pergamene Thureos Swordsmen) Lacking enough citizens for their armies, the rulers of Pergamon hire mercenaries and local tribesmen. This unit is a mix of Galatians, Thracians, and Greeks - both in recruits and equipment. They serve as light assault infantry and are better then their regular counterparts.

14	100	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Perg_Citizen_Cav) Pergamoi Hippeis (Pergamene Cavalry) The horse-owning rich have the same rights to defend their homes as lesser men in the phalanx.

15	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Perg_Elite_Peltasts) Pergamoi Epilektoi Peltastai (Pergamene Elite Peltasts) Unusually well-armoured skirmishers, these peltasts serve as the assault force of Pergamene armies, the first troops to storm into the fray.

17	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Perg_Light_Peltasts) Pergamoi Peltastai (Pergamene Peltasts) These skirmishers of Gallo-Thracian origin sensibly withdraw from threats while harrassing the enemy with javelins.

18	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Perg_Peltasts) Phrygioi Peltastai (Phrygian Peltasts) The Phrygians, relatives of the Thracians, have for centuries fought as light infantry and very capable peltasts. The Attalids, who rule a great part of Phrygia, continued the tradition by incorporating Phrygian peltasts in their armies.

19	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Perg_Silver_Shield) Somatophylakes Thorakitai (Elite Bodyguard Infantry) These elite swordsmen are very nimble, and carry javelins and swords. Their heavy armor and great skill in battle makes them perhaps some of the most effective offensive infantry available to the Attalids.
19	200	200	1354	1354								39	10	13	90	18	20	65
20	100	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (Perg_Thorax_Cav) Pergamoi Thorakitai Hippeis (Pergamene Thorax Cavalry) These mail-clad cavalrymen are well able to handle themselves in the cut-and-thrust of melee. They are example of a Pergamene mixture of both Greek and Roman influences.
20	100	100	2122	2122								36	9	28	50	22	20	55
21	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Perg_Thorax_Legionary) Pergamoi Thorakitai (Pergamene Thorax Swordsmen) These veterans fight in the Roman style, and do so with fortitude.

22	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Perg_Thureos_Elite) Epilektoi Thureophoroi (Elite Thureos Spears) These warriors are the first line of an army, strong in defence against cavalry with their spears and deadly from range with their javelins. Relying mostly on light troops, the state of Pergamon arms their best troops with better equipment than other line troops.
22	200	200	1046	1046								34	9	11	71	12	20	55
23	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Pergamon_Guard) Syntrophoi Dynastou (Pergamene Royal Companions) These royal guardsmen are elite spearmen, modeled after the hypaspists. Their name means "ruler's companions," derived from the companion of the Pergamene dynast, the traditional ruling title of Attalus before adopting the title "basileus" (king).
23	200	200	1357	1357								35	9	17	82	18	20	60
24	256	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Pergamon_Pikes) Kleroukhoi Palaimakhoi Phalangitai (Pergamene Pikemen) The veteran Kleroukhoi phalangites have become the main body of the Attalid infantry during the long strife with the Seleucids in Asia Minor.
