Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Axemen) Komatai Pelekuphoroi (Dacian Axemen) Aside from their large contingents of Drapanai, the Pelekuphoroi are the common warriors of the Karp and Kostobok tribes. They wield bronze axes and have sturdy round shields. Their scale leather provides adequate protection against Scythian arrows and Bastarnae spears but will do little to stop a heavy, curved falx blade. These fast, hardy troops are best used in ambushes, hit-and-run attacks, or flanking manoeuvres against heavier warriors, but are fierce enough to stand in the battle line if the situation demands it. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Carpi_Swordsmen) Carpi Machairaphoroi (Carpi Swordsmen) The Celticisation of western Dacians has led to a bigger number of swordsmen in the Dacian army. These units are skilled and versatile, and the Carpi are one of the most well-known fighting tribes among the Dacians. They are primarily mountaineers living on both sides of the Carpathians, which bear their name. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Costoboci_Hillmen) Costoboci Pelekephoroi (Costoboci Axemen) The Costoboci are northern Dacians, who have been isolated for a long in the southern Carpathians, protecting the Dacians against the western Celtic invaders and the fierce Bastarnae over the mountains. They are hardy mountaineers, but too poor to afford better equipment than weapons like wooden-tipped javelins and shock weapons like the battleaxe. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Dii_Rhomphaiaphoroi) Dii Rhomphaiaphoroi (Dii Falxmen) The Dii, known for their barbaric fierceness and cruelty, have been known to massacre an entire city, including the animals. In battle they prefer the ambush, and their attack is strong enough to break even experienced formations. Equipped with a short falx, a Pelte shield and helmets of Thracian style, the Dii are good shock troops. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Elite_Falxmen) Epilektoi Drapanai (Dacian Elite Falxmen) These very skilled falxmen are the chosen men from the Drapanai units. Well protected, but more agile than the late Roman legionaries, these elites use the terrific cutting power of their falxes to disrupt the enemy lines, or to exploit the gap created by the regular Drapanai. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Elite_Infantry) Ischyroi Orditon (Dacian Elite Infantry) The Ischyroi Orditon, or mighty men of the Ordes," are the elite guard among the Getae. They trace their lineage back to the old capital at Helis, and are the crème of the Getic noble infantry. Armed with a long thrusting spear and either a sica or Celtic sword, they can be very effective in close combat with infantry. Protected by a Thracian helm with a large crest imported from Hellas, as well as a large oval shield and a coat of mail, they are some of the most heavily armoured units in any Getic army." |

They are still equipped with a sica as main weapon, and still rely on iron-tipped javelins. They do not have helments, but wear a light and flexible composite leather jacket reinforced by bronze pieces." |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Reformed_Infantry) Daoi Thorakitai Machairaphoroi (Dacian Thorax Swordsmen) Men of skill and experience are chosen to assist Dacian spearmen in close combat. These late elite infantrymen are actually inspired by roman legionary warfare. They are protected by leather scale armour, chainmail, and simply designed helmets. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Shock_Infantry) Drapanai (Falxmen) The Drapanai contingents are made up of resolute warriors, well aware of their role as shock troops on the battlefield. While the average Getic soldier tells himself he is immortal, more than any others the Drapanai join battle without fear of death. They fight bare-chested, wearing only trousers. Their trademark though is the falx, a vicious blade capable of severing limbs and causing horrible wounds with a single, crushing blow. Their lack of armour is a drawback against concentrated enemy missile fire, so they should not be exposed to enemy ranged attacks needlessly. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Dac_Sica_Warriors) Komatai Sicaphoroi (Dacian Sica Warriors) The Sicaphoroi, sica bearers," are recruited from the peasantry, and fight with a falx and javelins, in the common way of Getic and Dacian warriors. The Sica is the common short falx used by peasants for harvesting. It is not designed as a true weapon, but over time, a true military version has been developed as a main weapon by experienced warriors." |
