Bastarnoz Slaganz

(Bastarnoz Warriors)

These frontiersmen, Germano-Thraco-Celtic people from the eastern borders of Germanic lands, come from a fierce and populous nation, with warriors so famous that they are often used as mercenaries by the Getae and the Greeks. The Bastarnoz are equipped with local weapons, including axes, swords and clubs.

Whereas German tribes often fought in a more ordered, organised manner than the Celts, they sometimes adopted their neighbours’ weapons and equipment, either through battle or trade. Celtic armour found its way onto the backs of privileged German warriors, while double-edged longswords were another example of creeping Celtic influence. An iron sword was a prestigious possession, so those who carried them were either of noble blood or were veteran followers. By following a noble, warriors were duty-bound to show dedication and valour. If he fell in combat, the noble’s men were expected to fight to the death. Anyone who survived such a battle was disgraced. Some hanged themselves, unable to live with the shame and dishonour of outliving their battle-lord.
