175 Gastraphetes
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.

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).""""

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_10_Sicily_Bruttian_Infantry)
Pezoi Brettioi
(Bruttian Infantry)

The Bruttii come from the southern extremity of Italy. These Bruttian troops are dependable medium infantry. They carry two pila, which they throw before engaging in close combat with their swords. They are well armoured with a variety of bronze pectorales, typical of the Oscan warrior class. Their helmets show Greek and Italian influence, known as Italo-Attic. They fought for Pyrrhus during his invasion of Italy.

Aichmetai Leukanoi
(Lucanian Light Infantry)

The Aichmetai Leukanoi are equipped with javelins, a knife and a small shield. Their speed is their best and only armour. They allied themselves with Pyrrhus of Epirus when he invaded, but were defeated and subjugated by the Romans after the Pyrrhic War.

300 Karotovas

Karotovas
(Fighting Men)

The Karotovas are wealthy tribal warriors heralding from the regions around the southern Baltic Sea. The possession of armour or iron weapons is unusual among the tribes who inhabit this area, and in this regard the Karotovas are unique. They carry well-made unique slashing swords, and can hit with a powerful - albeit disorderly - charge. As they are somewhat undisciplined, they often disregard notions of prudence and can charge at their own will.

175 Klappagnetoi
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.

300 Batores
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.

300 Atecti
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.

300 Bagaudas
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.

175 Talmores
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.

175 Acubagaudas
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.

300 Kasegilo Gaelaiche
Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (cel_tylis_spearmen)
Kasegilo Gaelaiche
(Celto-Thracian Spearmen)

During the massive Celtic invasion of Thrace, many Celts passed through Thracian territory, ravaging, pillaging, and fighting all encountered forces, eventually seizing the village of Tylis, which became their capital in 278 BCE. Neighbouring tribes have been Celticised" after 60 years of life under Celtic rule, and these Gaelaiche represent a kind of typical "Celto-Thracian" infantry."
