Short description

The people of Western Asia are diverse, numerous, and fierce, and have a long tradition in warfare. These are light, mobile spearmen with poor morale; they fare moderately against cavalry and light infantry, but beware of heavy troops!

Description

The people of Western Asia are diverse, numerous, and fierce, and have a long tradition in warfare. These men's homes have been ruled by Assyrians, Babylonians, Urartians, Medians, Persians, Macedonians, and now the splinter kingdoms that traipse on these lands make use of these men as an important part of their fighting forces, appearing frequently in the armies of the Parthians, Pontians and Armenians. With good encouragement and support, their spears and shields are all these troops need to hold off infantry and provide time for cavalry to outflank the enemy. That is where these men's strengths lie: either in providing a flexible light infantry force to help protect the vulnerable flanks of heavier troops, or in holding a foe in place so they can be outflanked at some point with chariots, horse archers, cavalry or even elephants.
