Fast, relatively powerful pursuit ships, well able to hunt down pirates and other seagoing scum.These javelin-armed skirmishers are fast moving and lightly armoured.
It is thought that the Rhodians, a significant naval power in the eastern Mediterranean, developed the 'trihemiolia' or 'two-and-a-half' as a vessel for pirate hunting. Given that Rhodes is an island entirely reliant on the sea and shipping this is a believable theory. Pirates used the hemiola, a handy little vessel developed from the dieres or bireme, a ship with two rows of oars; it makes sense that pirate hunters would think of taking a trieres, or trireme, with three rows of oars and modifying it in a similar fashion. A trihemiolia still had three rows of oars on each side, but the top row was reduced to only half the number of oars, positioned midships. The result was a faster, handier vessel that provided a height advantage over a hemiola for any archers on board. There was also a strategic benefit to the Rhodians, who could only draw on the manpower of one island: they could have six trieres warships with full complements of rowers, or seven trihemiolias for the same number of men. The useful design was soon adopted by other maritime powers around the Mediterranean.
(Light Roman Skirmishers)
Skirmishers harass the enemy, never giving them pause to regroup or breathe. Successful skirmish forces were often used to pin an enemy down whilst the vanguard prepared for the decisive attack. Eastern armies primarily employed skirmish cavalry, born of and entirely suited to the terrain upon which they fought and their cavalry-heavy structure. The javelin was an oft-used weapon for skirmishers, particularly from horseback. A rider could hurl his weapon at the enemy and be far away before they had time to react. If they were foolish enough to turn and face the threat, they could be blind to an infantry bulwark bearing down upon them.
