5	256	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_29_chalybes_spearmen) Chalyboi Doryphoroi (Chalybes Spearmen) The armour of these spearmen consists of a leather helmet, greaves, and a long quilted linen tunic. Instead of the leather pteryges of a Greek corselet, the Chalybes have plaited cords to provide protection below the cuirass. Their main weapon is a long spear. They are useful against light infantry, but their lack of shields means they are vulnerable to enemy arrows.

22	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_9_lucanian_hoplites) Leukanoi Hoplitai (Lucanian Hoplites) Lucanian troops have fought in the ranks of Pyrrhus' army.

They just as impressive as some foot tarabostes could be, with tremendous skill and experience of war. Such infantrymen are a kind of royal foot guard, recruited from among the best by their prince. They guarantee a strong anchor for a wavering battle line.

24	256	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Dac_Heavy_Phalanx) Komatai Thorakitai Stratiotai (Dacian Heavy Pikemen) These are the rank-and-file of the Getic professional troops, raised once the Getic state reached a strong level of organisation. They are well adapted to dense forested areas, thus their cohesion does not suffer from fighting in rough terrain when in close formation. These warriors wear mail shirts, and Phrygian helmets over their traditional wool shirts and trousers, befitting their status as professionals.

25	256	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Dac_Light_Phalanx) Getikoi Stratiotai (Dacian Light Pikemen) The tribes that have contact with the Hellenic poleis on the western shores of the Pontus Euxinus form a distinct breed of warriors. These men are renowned for their ferocity, and all Macedonian expeditions sent against them effectively disappear in the Getic wasteland", Moreover Macedonian kings like Lysimakos knew Getic captivity. Their contact with the Hellenic poleis made them well familiarized with the phalanx formation. These men are equipped with Phrygian helmets, padded leather armour and large oval shields. For weapons, they carry a spear and a sica into battle, similar to most Hellenic phalanx soldiers."
