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	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	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Cel_Klappagnetoi) Klappagnetoi (Celtic Slinger Spearmen) Klappagnetoi are renowned for their use of slings. Although small in number, these Celtic slingers are excellent and considered the best in all of northern Europe. However, these men are not true warriors and are unfit for melee combat except against other slingers and light units. If kept at a distance, these men can rapidly inflict significant damage on the enemy, making armoured opponents think twice before entering within their range.

5	300	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (cel_tyl_clubmen) Batores (Celtic Clubmen) These men are a peasant levy, but are usually the strongest men around, chosen by the local chieftain. Their poor armament and protection makes them fast and well-suited for their task. The Batores are equipped with crude weapons, usually heavy clubs and various forestry and farming tools, like axes and other chopping instruments.
5	300	300	440	440								29	11	14	56	1	20	40
6	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (cel_tyl_levy_spearmen) Atecti (Celtic Levy Spearmen) These levies are recruited from outside the warrior class. Not well-trusted, they are poorly equipped with hastily-made wicker shields. Their main weapon is the spear, economical and efficient at short distances.
6	300	300	333	333								21	9	10	51	1	20	40
7	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (cel_tyl_light_spearmen) Bagaudas (Celtic Light Spearmen) These men carry a gaiso, a lancia, or any other intermediate-sized spear, which makes them usueful against enemy cavalry. They are not especially a defensive unit, but more a "guerilla warfare" unit, capable of fast tactical moves.
7	300	300	386	386								24	9	12	67	1	20	40
8	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (cel_tyl_slingers) Talmores (Celtic Slingers) These irregular slingers support the Celtic infantry line, and are capable of throwing their stones up to 230 or even 250 meters. In fact, they are devastating, but also easy prey in case of a counterattack, especially by cavalry.
8	175	175	578	578				6	190	5	20	21	11	9	40	1	20	35
9	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (cel_tyl_youth) Acubagaudas (Celtic Youth Skirmishers) These skirmishers are equipped with a dagger, or more rarely, a short sword for close combat. Young and agile, they are primarly posted on the flanks of an army, both to prevent enemy flanking manoeuvers, and to outflank the enemy themselves and support their own cavalry.
