Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (Eas_Persian_Hoplites) Arteshtar-i Kardakan-i Parsig (Persian Hoplites) The Kardaka are armed with a long thrusting spear, and they also carry the large hoplon-shaped shield known as the aspis. They generally wear iron scale armour, but any rudimentary armour, including bronze scales, linen and even quilted cloth can suffice depending on individual wealth or the available equipment of local armouries. These well-drilled, close-order infantry form the core of most eastern armies. |

Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (par_very_heavy_infantry) Gund i Sugdianavanig (Parthian Heavy Infantry) In general, historians consider Parthian infantry as anectdotal: They usually rely on local foot auxiliaries for land battles. But in time, their all-mounted tactic has become unsuccessful by nature in sieges of all sorts. Being very heavy, these troops are not useful for prolonged running on the battlefield, but for assaulting walls with bravery, skill and great efficiency. |
