Basileion Odryson Hoplite/Pike Infantry

Thrakioi Hypaspistai

(Thracian Veteran Hoplites)

These proven veterans are the most reliable part of the Thracian army of Lysimakos. They are an elite royal unit, appointed to the personal guard of the king, chosen from veterans, and always posted on the weakest part of the phalanx. They are equipped like heavy hoplites, but some of them wear only their tunic with their heavy equipment.

These skirmishers were named for their small crescent-shaped leather or wicker shields or 'peltai'. It was a common habit to name troops for their shield style in the Greek world. They wore little or no armour and carried three javelins. After harassing the enemy by flinging javelins, they would hastily retreat before any counter-charge or flanking move could be carried out. As armies developed and tactics became more complex, peltasts were expected to take part in hand-to-hand combat: with such expectation they were given stiffened linen cuirasses and short swords. They were still expected to use javelins, but could then join in the close fighting. Eventually, peltasts even exchanged their characteristic shield for the heavier thureos. Their name and battlefield function remained unchanged.
