Spartan Descendants

"We follow the path of strength and honour."

Our traditional, Spartan-influenced heavy infantry is the backbone of every Greek army. In the past, the phalanx formation was all, but over time its weaknesses have become apparent as our foes have changed their tactics in order to defeat them. We have developed lighter infantry units and tactics to meet this challenge, with speed replacing power where possible. Over time, we’ve introduced slightly heavier armour, which is effective without compromising their speed due to its weight, but makes our light troops better able to defend themselves.
