Gallic Townsfolk BoiiBoii Melee Infantry

Gallic Townsfolk

Farmers, artisans and tradesmen from the surrounding regions who have been drafted into the local garrison. Whilst these men have a stout desire to defend their homes, they are poorly equipped, lack military experience and can scarcely be regarded as soldiers.

These irregular, novice warriors were drawn from among the farmers, hunters and young men of the tribe. They carried Celtic shortswords, which were cutting and hacking blades, unlike the thrusting design of the Roman gladius. The shortsword developed from the earlier Celtic longsword, and was not as expensive to make. With little armour and only a simple shield these irregulars may have been lacking in equipment and skills but they made up for it by their numbers. Some warriors would also carry javelins or heavy, weighted darts to throw in the last moments before charging into melee. This gave them uses as both skirmishers and light infantry.
