Muster Field

Citizens, subject troops, conscripts and levies muster here for drill and war.

Drawing upon their citizens or subjects, supplemented by mercenaries, Hellenic states could quickly muster troops in times of war. Their generals were usually elected officials or chosen from amongst the nobility. In Athens, the military consisted of the ephebes undergoing training and the older male citizens, led by the ten elected strategoi, or war ministers. Originally these men were hoplites but, following the pattern of Alexander the Great, they developed into the hypaspists, phalangites and thureophoroi over the following centuries. This shift also saw a move to more professional and mercenary troops being used. Wealthier citizens, those able to afford horses, provided the hippeis, or light cavalry, while noble cavalry again followed the Alexandrian model. Mercenaries, such as the Thracians, the Scythian bow-armed police of Athens, or the Galatian royal guard of Cleopatra, supplemented these mustered forces.

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	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Gre_Thureos_Spears) Thureophoroi (Thureos Spears) These well-trained warriors are a flexible force of skirmishing spearmen.

15	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Rhodian_Thureophoroi) Philioi Thureophoroi (Dorian Thureos Spears) The Thureophoroi are gradually becoming the most frequently used military unit in Hellenistic armies. The Dorians of Doris, a coastal region of Asia Minor, are no exception to that trend. They are related to the Rhodians and sometimes under Rhodian dominance, therefore they are recruited as an necessary addition for the Rhodian army, in order to keep pace in the new military environment.
