Assault Dieres - Hamspah Infantry

The waterline ram was first mounted on a vessel in around 850BC. Warships and naval tactics were transformed. Ships were no longer platforms for infantry battles on the water; the ship itself became the weapon. Galleys changed as the new reality sank in. Ramming at speed would hole and sink an enemy, therefore slimmer, faster, handier ships were required. More speed on demand obviously required more oars a fast ship with a single row of oars ended up being stupidly, impractically long. The solution, then, was to put in a second set of oars above the first, but slightly offset to allow for rowers' benches. These biremes, a Latin word meaning 'two oars', or dieres, the Greek equivalent, were no longer than previous designs but had twice the number of rowers. They were fast, manoeuvrable, and could carry a fighting contingent. Some nations also gave their bireme crews fire pots; these clay pots filled with oil and pitch were hurled at enemy ships in the entirely reasonable hope of setting them ablaze.

(Hamspah Infantry)
The Sassanid military was organised into corps, which were groups of divisions; in turn, corps were groups of brigades. Parthia's military legacy was strongly represented in the new Persian army. It relied on heavy, armoured, noble cavalry and light horse archers consisting of lesser nobility and nomadic mercenaries. As ever, tribal peasants made the bulk of the Hamspah or levy infantry. They were used as the rear guard but were next to useless as soldiers due to their crude arms, meagre training and poor motivation, since the best equipment and drill was reserved for the horsemen who could afford it. Whenever the Hamspah were not standing in line as spearmen, the everyday duties of the camp fell to them, such as guarding the baggage.
