Imannae
(Britannic Skirmishers)

The Imannae (Im-an-ay) are youths used throughout many less developed Celtic territories to ambush and disorient enemies. In an army, they generally act as a screen for the main force, disrupting the enemy formations with their javelins before the older warriors charge. They are actually more akin to a militia arm, and are employed by tribes in dire need of defense. They are best employed as hit-and-run soldiers for if they become embroiled in a melee they will surely break and flee.

Sotaroas
(Britannic Archers)

Britannic archers, Sotaroas (Sow-tah-rows), are useful without being exceptional. They are well trained, disciplined, and can attack at a fairly long range. While their skills are unremarkable, their ability to swiftly pepper an enemy with missiles is always of use. They are not designed to defeat an enemy force, or even truly damage one, but instead are intended to harass and distract their opponents. As such, they are good runners, who fire a few volleys as a distraction, and then withdraw to a safe position to hide. If caught in a melee, they will be slaughtered.

Uassedoi
(Britannic Slingers)

Comprised of the sons of higher-class men, the Uassedoi are not warriors ready for the front-line of battle. Still, they are unencumbered by heavy shields and can move in quickly with their spears against other light troops, or take up flanking positions with their slings. Many of these youths will someday take the places of their fathers and uncles, and this is where they begin their training.
