Melee Cavalry (Custom Battle Units)

Although they are versatile units protected by shields, melee cavalry are weak against more specialised units.

Phylakes Daoi
(Royal Bodyguard Cavalry)

The strong ties developed between the royalty and the Ktistai priesthood make these zealots the perfect recruits for the king's guard. The beltistai's loyalty is unquestionable and their ferocity unmatched. Indeed, the Ktistai are so close to the king, that his royal successor will either be chosen from their ranks, or become pontifex maximus of the priesthood. Those recruited for the Beltistai Korps must have been trained from infancy, and the secretive nature of their order will render them ideal for the purposes of any strong ruler.

Tarabostes
(Dacian Cavalry)

The Tarabostes are mounted warbands comprised of warriors, usually veterans, attached to a war chief. They often form the main volunteer force for pillaging raids. Attached to the Getic nobility, these warriors often have better equipment than their fellow Getic warriors. They are armoured with chainmail and large oval shields. They carry a spear and the sica blade. They are fearsome, well-armoured, all-round cavalry that look upon war as a class affair.
