300 Hildisvini
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ger_Dreugulozez_Brunjadoi)
Hildisvini
(Germanic Axemen)

These chosen men are relatively poor, but equipped with axes and useful for breaking enemy formations. They are strong and battle-hardened, thus very effective against any unit, even an armoured one. They are also fast and agile, perfect for flanking manoeuvers, or as the main shock infantry, followed by other warriors. The name literally means battlepig," as they are the metaphoric equivalents of the wild boar."

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ger_early noble_swordsmen)

(Early Germanic Elite Swordsmen)

Armed with sturdy shields and swords, these men are the Germanic warrior elite. Professionals, they spend their time in the service of a chieftain or king, and fight for his glory and honour in battle. If necessary, it is expected that these men will give their lives for their leader. To leave a battlefield when their chief has fallen is the greatest dishonour for a Herunoudaz.

Niwjaz Herunoudozez
(Late Germanic Elite Swordsmen)

The late Herunoudozez are much better equipped compared to their predecessors. Their oval, rectangular or hexagonal shields are reinforced with a metal shield rim. Finally, some of these warriors have Celtic or Roman mail-shirts and helmets acquired by trade, or less peaceful means. If necessary, it is expected that these men will give their lives for their leader. To leave a battlefield when their chief has fallen is the greatest dishonour for a Herunoudaz.

300 Slaganz
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ger_Sloxonez)
Slaganz
(Germanic Clubmen)

Although the club is a crude and primitive weapon, it is still widely used by many nations throughout the known world. A club is efficient against shields, and especially any unit in a shieldwall, the most common tactic of any Celtic army. Suebi clubmen use a light, one-handed club, so they can carry and throw javelins at the same time.

200 Herusku Druthinaz
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ger_Xerunoudozez)
Herusku Druthinaz
(Heruskoz Swordsmen)

These Heruskoz swordsmen are few in number, but they are the best warriors of their tribe, most likely noble sons from wealhy families. Their sword is generally shorter and broader than a Celtic sword, especially in the later period, good for thrusting and slashing. It is especially useful against Roman troops, as most Germanic warbands are unarmoured.

200 Khomwulfoz
Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Ger_Berserkers)
Khomwulfoz
(Berserkers)
