While Numidians much preferred the use of cavalry, some infantry were used as skirmishers. Trained in the use of javelins from an early age, they were superb hunters haling from nomadic tribes where such skills were used every day. In SPQR, Numidian skirmishers are...

Renowned as the best horsemen in Africa, Numidians went into battle with no armour but were adept at harassing slower enemy units with javelins and faced enemy cavalry with ferocious zeal. Best employed on the flanks of a warband rather than forming its centre,...
-
Once close allies of Rome, Dacia was the recipient of money and weapons, including the lethal Scorpio. Suitably reinforced, Dacian strongholds and villages became a lot tougher for Romans to assault when shot at by their own mightiest weapons. A scorpio has a massive...
-
While the cataphracts earned all the glory, it was the wave upon wave of light cavalry that formed the core of a Sarmatian force. Whether carrying short spears or bows, these riders could keep an enemy perpetually off-balance, slowly whittling them down until the...
-
Dacian tribesmen were poorer or less skilful than the falxmen and nobles, but provided support that was more than adequate in the form of javelins, sling stones and arrows. In sufficient numbers, they were capable of facing even veteran soldiers and many a legionary...

-
The Roman legions soon came to respect the warriors of Dacia. Far from being simple barbarians, they were brave and carried a large curved sword, the falx, that easily slipped past the shields of the legionaries. Roman casualties quickly mounted when facing Dacians, and...
-
Whether from Dacia or Sarmatia, a hero that leads a Dacia & Sarmatia Warband is a renowned warrior and a veteran of many battles. Dacian Heroes know the value of fortifications, and prolonged wars against Rome by retreating to fortified places. Sarmatian Heroes are...
-
No less fierce than warriors on foot, the cavalry of the Germanic tribes tended to be used in hit and run attacks, striking enemies in the flank then chasing them down as they routed. They would avoid head-on charges into enemy formations, leaving that...
-
Provide extra boons to a cavalry unit with a musician and standard bearer - as well as an ideal alternative sculpt for representing a lightly armed mounted hero, showing off his superiority by displaying the severed head of a defeated foe affixed to his...
-
Too poor or too young to be considered true warriors, these men fan out before the warband, engaging enemy skirmishers with bow or javelins, whittling them down before the tribe’s warriors charge in to deliver the finishing blow. Includes 12 infantry in Warlord Resin...
-
Like some warriors of other lands, some Germanic warriors chose to go into battle with scant protection; to demonstrate their utter fearlessness in combat. Such a sight can be daunting for a foe. In SPQR, Skyclad Warriors receive a bonus attack on their to...
-
Each block of warriors in a Germanic warband would typically be related, by oath if not blood. This formed a tight cohesiveness, with warriors taking the deaths of those next to them somewhat personally. Their natural ferociousness combined with this unity made them extremely...
-
Contains a musician and standard bearer to provide combat bonuses to units of Warriors. A leader hoists his latest trophy, an ideal sculpt as an alternative hero for your force - potentially a supplementary lightly armed hero to lead the warriors into the fray....
-
A chieftain or warlord of his tribe, the Germania hero has the respect of all those below him, having earned it with his sword and spear. In battle, the hero will be found where the fighting is at its most fierce and desperate. It...
-
The backbone of the warband, these fierce warriors were bloodthirsty to the core. Weight of numbers makes up for their comparatively poor armaments. A charging force of Gaul warriors was a terror to endure, such was their tenacity on the field of battle. Contains...
-
Trained to ignore the noise and chaos of battle, the war dogs used by Gallic tribes were easily capable of ripping the throat out of an enemy. Attacking on command, their handlers assembled them into waves of slavering killers who could break even a...
-
Capable of harassing their foes from afar, Gaul tribesmen slingers were lightly armoured missile troops that were yet to prove themselves as warriors; yet were still highly effective at disrupting the ranks of their foes. Contains 12 Warlord Resin models and SPQR revised edition...
-
Those tribesmen yet to prove themselves in battle could still join the warriors, taking the Gaul’s favoured hunting weapon, the bow. Too poor or too young to have much in the way of armour, these men fan out before the warband. They engaged enemy...
