{barb_peltast_gaul_descr}
擅长躲在森林之中\n可以躲藏在长草丛中\n\n标枪战士是轻武装部队，应该将他们分成小队，在主战线开战之\n前扰乱敌人的阵线，并掩护重型部队。他们的本领也使他们适用\n于战术突袭。\n\n每个人都配备一束投掷标枪，一把短剑以及一面小盾，但是他们\n不穿着盔甲，取速度而不取保护。\n\n标枪战士往往是部落中较年轻的战士。这些人必须证明自己的\n战斗能力，因此不一定要刚强到能够面对面抵抗强大而有经验\n的敌人。

{barb_slinger_briton}		投石兵

{barb_slinger_briton_descr}
擅长躲在森林之中\n\n投石索是一种非常简单的武器：投石兵可以一发击倒最强壮的\n人。这些投石兵可以瞄准敌人并投掷一片石雨，以最有力的打击\n敌军。毕竟，他们从孩提时代就开始用投石索来打猎。不可让投\n石兵陷入肉搏战，因为他们没有盔甲，而且装备不足－只有一把\n小刀或短剑及一面盾牌－很快就会被砍成肉酱。用于远程打击\n敌人时，他们是绝佳的选择。

{barb_archer_dacian_descr}
擅长躲在树丛中\n\n弓箭手用于骚扰敌人及打散敌人阵形，好让其他的战士能够冲\n进敌人阵线中。弓箭手穿着轻盔甲，装备轻便，主要依靠速度来\n避让敌人。在开阔地上被骑兵包围的弓箭手都面临被屠杀的命\n运，除非他们可以迅速抵达有利的位置或友军的盾墙后面。\n\n他们的弓箭射程短，但是每名战士都携带不同的狩猎及战斗箭\n支，分别用于放血和破甲。他们根据打击的目标选择使用不同的\n箭支。\n\n这些弓箭手在丛林地带中最能发挥战斗力，他们在狩猎中学会\n的潜行技能可以派上大用场。

精锐\n可以在任何地方隐蔽\n非常强壮\n\n专门的狩猎生活是进行战争训练的好方法。个人的勇气、本领以\n及敏捷身手，都可以在狩猎中学到。森林猎手是本领极高明的兵\n种，擅用弓及枪，这是他们喜欢的武器。他们也都穿着上好的皮\n甲。\n\n他们的狩猎本领也令他们在伏击人类时能很好把握机会－这些\n人几乎可以隐蔽在任何地方，利用所有的隐蔽物。发动伏击及肉\n搏战的能力使他们成为非常重要的特种部队，而且他们会服从\n所有的命令。森林猎手已经清楚自己是优秀的猎人及战士，因此\n不需要用攻击来展现他们的本领！

{warband_hurler_briton}		掷头兵

{warband_hurler_briton_descr}
狂野\n冲动\n擅长躲在森林之中\n\n在战斗中，掷头兵投掷以生石灰处理过的死敌人头。这种弹药既\n危险又可怕。掷头兵结合了实用和恐怖的手段－他们收集死去\n敌人的头颅，将它们泡在生石灰里保存。特制的头颅用在战斗中\n做为可怕的弹药，从极远的距离扔进敌人队列中。作为弹药，这\n些充满石灰的沉重头颅足可造成伤害（而且对士气有一定的影\n响），但是真正造成伤害的是石灰，它会烧伤身体。掷头兵也配备\n剑，若有必要可以在近战中使用。\n\n掷头战士并不在意自己的性命，容易在没有接到命令的情况下\n冲进战斗中。

狂野\n冲动\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n在许多西徐亚部落中，战争文化极为强烈，男女都因其英勇的战\n斗表现而受景仰。女猎骑就是这种文化的产物，而且她们有明显\n的动机，要在战斗中表现：她们若是不曾投入战斗，就不能结婚。\n像其他西徐亚战士一样，在战斗中丧命的高地位女性会和其武\n器装备一同获得光荣的葬礼。\n\n尽管勇气十足，这些处女战士的体能比大部份男性差。因此她们\n成为优秀的轻骑兵，可以骚扰敌方弓箭手和轻步兵，但是（至少为\n了后代）应该让她们远离敌人较为强大的部队。

强壮\n惊吓步兵\n激励我方部队\n\n战车是凯尔特科技的顶点，也是有效率的战争器械。因此会看到\n部落领袖驾着战车进入战场，并有成群的护卫陪伴。酋长必须有\n一群坚强的战士陪伴在身边，再投入战场之中，以证明他不但是\n个伟大的领袖，也是个伟大的战士。\n\n蛮族酋长维持其指挥地位，不只是靠着战术能力，也因为他们本\n人既勇敢又坚强。没有战士会愿意跟随懦夫，也没有懦夫有权利\n要求他的战友牺牲生命。

{carthaginian_peasant}		农民

{carthaginian_peasant_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n农民不是高明的战士，但是在所有军队中，人数都极为重要，而强\n迫农民战斗是迅速而廉价地将大量人力投入战场的方法之一。\n他们没有什么军事概念，甚至不愿意战斗－他们宁可保护自己\n的家，也不愿意被拖进自己不在乎也不明白的战斗。但是在必须\n挖掘的时候，他们是很有用的！但是他们擅长观察地形，并能够隐\n蔽起来。

{carthaginian_slinger}		投石兵

{carthaginian_slinger_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n投石兵是本领极高超的远程部队，但是在正面战斗中非常不利，\n尤其是面对骑兵时。他们可以对敌人进行长时间而集中的猛烈\n攻击，然后迅速后退以避免肉搏。投石兵携带一个肩袋，里面放\n着许多石头（他们也可以使用战场上捡拾的石头），以及多付备\n用的投石索，其中包括不同长度的投石索，以投掷不同的距离。\n除了刀子和小盾之外，他们没有携带其它装备。

{carthaginian_city_militia}		城镇民兵

{carthaginian_city_militia_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n城镇民兵是受过训练的平民，从他们的家中及商队中被征召，一\n人一把枪进行基础训练，即投入战斗。他们的战斗装备只有一面\n便宜的盾牌和枪，因此最适合对抗轻骑兵。不要期待他们能坚持\n对抗敌人，而且在经过战争洗礼之前，除了自卫之外，不要对他们\n有过多期待！但是他们的训练价格低廉。

{carthaginian_medium_infantry}		利比亚枪兵

{carthaginian_medium_infantry_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n利比亚枪兵最适合对抗骑兵，在必要时也可以防守阵线一段时\n间。他们自迦太基社会的低层中征召而来，接受使用枪和战争器\n械的基础训练。他们的装备比民兵略好，因为他们有轻皮甲、盾\n牌及头盔。他们的训练使他们在战场上颇有战斗力，因为他们不\n像民兵部队那么容易溃散。

{carthaginian_sacred_band_descr}
精锐\n有纪律\n能挖坑道\n可以组成方阵\n\n圣团步兵是迦太基军队的精锐步兵，他们会拼死完成任务。他们\n的装备和编制与稀腊的重步兵相同，使用长枪、大盾、胸甲及头\n盔，而且也可以使用方阵。这是一种经几个世纪证明其价值的作\n战方式。\n\n他们是从迦太基社会的精英中征召而来，都是出身贵族和富有\n之家的人，赤胆忠心。圣团步兵的最初是作为迦太基军队的军官\n团以及精锐部队，并且以迦太基为第一效忠对象。对手已经知道\n这些人在战场上的威力，他们是整个迦太基军队的步兵精锐核\n心！

{bull_warriors}		公牛战士

{bull_warriors_descr}
精锐\n冲动\n强壮\n擅长躲在森林之中\n\n在勇敢的西班牙山区居民之中，公牛战士的勇气、耐力和本领是\n无与伦比的。这些战士是突袭部队，他们在杀敌时，无视任何危\n险。他们只携带一把剑和盾，看起来没有什么威胁，但是敌人不\n会第二次做这种错误的评估！尤其是当他们突袭敌方部队时。他\n们不怕任何人，由于他们过于热衷战斗，反而可能成为问题。就\n像所有的步兵一样，他们必须注意骑兵。\n\n公牛战士的称呼来自于他们戴着有牛角尖的头盔。

能挖坑道\n\n努米底亚标枪兵是行动迅速的标枪兵，从小就训练用标枪狩猎。\n他们是从游牧民族中征召而来，本来就必须倚靠其武器和本领\n在艰苦的环境中生存。\n\n他们最适合用来骚扰敌人，以箭雨削弱敌人的阵线。他们应该避\n免陷于肉搏战中，因为他们的刀子比较适合用来剥动物的皮，而\n不是杀人；同时，除了一面小盾之外，他们没有盔甲。\n\n历史上，努米底亚人非常残忍地对待叛变者和懦夫：钉十字架是\n常用的惩罚。

{numidian_desert_warriors_descr}
高级\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n这些来自撒哈拉沙漠地区的坚强人民是优秀的枪兵，适合抵抗\n骑兵。他们是难缠的部队。他们要在艰苦的沙漠环境中求生存，\n沙漠中长距离行军对精力充沛的他们而言，就像家常便饭一样。\n他们配备枪和以木头及动物皮毛制成的大盾，不畏战斗－沙漠\n的生活让人抱着一种宿命感。\n\n他们是努米底亚指挥官手下最优秀的战士之一，但是他们缺少\n正规训练，算是有一点不足。

{numidian_legionaries}		努米底亚步兵

{numidian_legionaries_descr}
有纪律\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n努米底亚步兵就像罗马军团的翻版，只是缺少真正罗马军团的\n纪律。他们接受罗马教官的训练，使他们成为努米底亚士兵中训\n练有素的部队。但他们在接近敌方目标时，无法使用罗马龟甲队\n形之类的战法。不过他们战斗的方式确实和罗马军团很像，先投\n掷重标枪，然后进行近战肉搏。\n\n坚强的性格加上艰苦的训练，使他们相当稳固，而且在战斗中不\n易疲惫；努米底亚军队可以信赖他们。

{numidian_legionaries_descr_short}
努米底亚步兵就像罗马军团的翻版，只是缺\n少真正罗马军团的纪律，但仍然是危险的敌\n人。

{carthaginian_medium_cavalry_descr}
高级\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n长盾骑兵是配备枪的轻骑兵，可以用来突破敌人防线，击退标枪\n兵，以及追击逃跑的敌人。这使他们成为一支灵活机动又颇具威\n力的部队。他们也可以投入肉搏战，因为他们携带弯曲马刀。这\n种刀的平衡非常好，重量偏向刀尖，使它的砍切格外有力。但是\n在对抗枪兵时，可能会处于下风。

{numidian_cavalry}		努米底亚标枪骑兵

{numidian_cavalry_descr}
强壮\n可以组成环形骑射队形\n\n努米底亚骑兵即使不是西地中海最优秀的，也可算是非洲最优\n秀的骑兵。这些标枪骑兵使用标枪，可谓是敌人的梦魇，因为几\n乎不可能在战斗中确定他们的位置。\n\n他们的战术是用致命的标枪攻击敌人，然后在敌人冲锋时迅速\n后撤。如果敌人坚守阵地，那就会统统死在标枪下；如果他们逃\n走，努米底亚骑兵可以用马踩死他们！\n\n努米底亚人是天生的骑士，他们不使用马鞍或缰绳，只使用一根\n棍子来指挥马匹。但是他们的动作就像鹰一样优雅。\n\n在他们家乡广阔的干旱地带里，努米底亚骑兵拥有极好的耐力，\n而且他们都是环形骑射攻击的专家。

高级\n强壮\n可以组成环形骑射队形\n对抗骑兵有加成\n\n这些强悍的沙漠骑士是“骆驼标枪骑兵”，充分利用了座骑的速\n度及马匹对骆驼的惧怕作用。努米底亚国王确实很聪明，会利用\n这些高明的战士。这些人也是坚强的民族，由于出身沙漠，因此\n可以忍受许多恶劣环境。\n\n他们不是世上最强的骑兵，但他们在对付步兵和（骑马）骑兵时\n非常有效。他们配备标枪及大盾，在长时间的肉搏战中并不是很\n有利，但是用于打了就跑的游击战时，是非常有效的。

{carthaginian_warhounds}		战狗

{carthaginian_warhounds_descr}
\n\n战狗因为其野蛮的本性和庞大的身躯而被饲养，但是它在袭击\n人时，比猎杀野猪更为危险！这些野兽力量很大。原本是为了狩\n猎大型猎物而饲养，现在则被训练用来猎杀及攻击人们。战狗通\n常向着敌人释放，以突破其阵线，并使敌人胆怯。很少人在面对\n一头咆哮的饿犬时，还能冷静地站立。这些狗被训练成咬住后就\n不放开，会将人类拖倒，还会惊吓马匹。\n\n它们的训练者都很勇敢，坚强，而且不会轻易被惊吓：许多人为此\n少了手指、手掌，甚至少了四肢！

{carthaginian_elephant_african_descr}
高级\n强壮\n可以狂乱地奔跑\n惊吓步兵\n惊吓骑兵\n\n战象是凶猛而可怕的野兽，可以将人和马匹踩成肉泥。它们是高\n度超过3米，庞大而脾气暴躁的动物，它们在战斗中常会因恐惧\n和愤怒而乱窜。这种情况下，无论是敌是友，没有人是安全的。正\n因为如此，驯象员必须带着一把斧头和枪，在必要时，可以砸爆或\n刺穿它的头以杀死它而安全落地。\n\n骑士装备弓，以攻击队形紧密的敌人，但是战象本身就是一种武\n器：它可以轻易踩踏敌人，将他们像破娃娃一样四处甩开。

战象是凶猛而可怕的野兽，可以将人和马匹\n踩成肉泥。

¬----------------

{carthaginian_onagers}		石弩

{carthaginian_onagers_descr}
发射火焰弹\n\n石弩是一种投石机，因为它对着敌人发射时的巨大弹射动作而\n被人戏称为“野驴”。这种战争器械以拉伸的动物筋腱提供弹力，\n这是当时所能取得的最具弹力的东西。\n\n投掷臂以筋腱来提供弹力。在向后拉并以钩固定后，它可以以极\n大的速度及射程来投掷大石。这种机器可以用来打击石制要塞，\n也可以在战场上用来摧毁敌人的炮兵及骚扰部队（虽然也可以\n直接杀死一些人）。\n\n石弩也可以用来发射火焰弹（例如油罐），使它成为很具灵活的\n炮兵器械。

{carthaginian_onagers_descr_short}
石弩是一种弹性的投石机，可以对敌人部队\n及要塞发射大石头或火焰弹。

{armenian_legionaries_descr}
有纪律\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n亚美尼亚步兵想要学习罗马军团的战斗方式和本领，并让其他\n地区的指挥官拥有像罗马军团那样战无不胜的部队。虽然装备\n和罗马军团相似，使用铁杆的投掷标枪、短剑、炼甲及大盾，但士\n兵的素质却和罗马兵团有些差距。亚美尼亚人是坚强的民族，不\n容易疲惫，而且他们必须服从军队铁一般的纪律，但是训练的质\n量却没有罗马人的标准和完善。在有经验之后，他们可以成为优\n秀的重步兵，但是不佳的训练使他们不能运用著名的龟甲队形。\n尽管如此，他们仍然可以让敌人震惊－他们用大量投掷标枪攻\n击敌人，然后推进肉搏的战斗方式，在亚美尼亚人手中运用起来\n和罗马人一样有效！

高级\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n马其顿轻骑兵是装备轻巧的快速骑兵，倚赖其攻击即撤退的冲\n锋来发挥其枪的最大战力。虽然他们拥有骑兵剑，可以进行近战，\n但是缺少盔甲表示一旦陷入肉搏战，他们就很容易遭受敌人反\n击，因此不适合用这些部队和重型部队交锋。这些人应该布署在\n战场的周围，对付标枪兵和远程攻击部队。若有必要，他们可以\n投入战斗的中心，或是攻击被削弱之敌人部队的侧翼或后方。

{greek_cavalry}		标枪骑兵

{greek_cavalry_descr}
可以组成环形骑射队形\n\n标枪骑兵是配备标枪的标枪兵，可以迅速发动攻击，并在敌人反\n应之前即行撤退。他们不穿着盔甲，但是携带盾牌和剑，在必须\n进行肉搏战时使用。但是他们最好用来冲向大批敌人加以侵扰，\n例如不可能追上他们的重步兵。他们并不适合和其他的标枪兵\n战斗－在面对可以闪躲的目标时，他们的标枪大多数会浪费掉－\n但是在追击逃跑的敌人时，他们却相当有用。

{greek_medium_cavalry}		希腊骑兵

{greek_medium_cavalry_descr}
可以组成楔形队形\n\n希腊骑兵是快速移动骑兵，配备枪以期在冲锋中获得最大的冲\n击力。他们的盔甲不厚重，而且没有盾牌提供保护，因此他们以\n“速度就是盔甲”的信条做为保护。因此他们最好当作打了就跑的\n部队使用，而不是可以投入肉搏战的士兵。尽管如此，他们很适\n合用于攻击标枪兵，攻击轻步兵（例如远程攻击部队），以及追逐\n已崩溃的敌人，防止他们重整及再度投入战场。

{greek_heavy_cavalry}		马其顿骑兵

{greek_heavy_cavalry_descr}
高级\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n马其顿骑兵是有盔甲的枪骑士，可以发动致命的攻击。他们穿戴\n盔甲，并携带剑，但是没有盾牌，因此在长时间的近战中不一定有\n最佳表现。但是，若是用来重复冲撞敌人部队，他们可以造成巨\n大的累积效果。\n\n马其顿人使用骑术已有长久历史，他们具有庞大的土地贵族阶\n级，可以养得起马匹；而不像南方的希腊，其农业社会只能生产重\n装兵。

{greek_royal_cavalry}		皇家骑兵

{greek_royal_cavalry_descr}
精锐\n有纪律\n强壮\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n皇家骑兵是社会及军事精英，以重骑兵之姿攻击大群敌人及攻\n破其阵线。他们是亚历山大大帝及其父亲“马其顿的菲力”的直\n系后裔，而且他们喜欢这种高傲的出身。\n\n皇家骑兵使用最好的马匹，使用最好的盔甲；每个人都配备上好\n的枪，及近战用的剑。身为重骑兵，他们可以成为战斗的主力，而\n且可以击倒许多对手！他们最适用于冲锋骑兵，用于突破敌人阵\n线，但是在攻击枪兵时要小心－就和所有的骑兵一样。冲向一排\n发亮的枪尖时，勇气是没有用的！\n\n传统上，这些人会在大胜之后获得土地，使他们在战斗后得到自\n己的利益。

{greek_elephant_small}		大象

强壮\n可以狂乱地奔跑\n惊吓步兵\n惊吓骑兵\n\n大象对敌方而言，是一个令人害怕的景象，可以撞击战线，将人撞\n开，像狗对付老鼠一样。\n\n这些肩高超过两米的特殊动物相当驯良，轻易就可以训练用于\n战争。它们移动速度快，在骑乘者的鼓励之下，可以踩踏敌人。它\n们是活的攻城车，以敌人的战线为目标。在追赶敌人时，可能更\n加致命。\n\n每头大象都没有装甲，但是许多攻击根本无法穿透坚硬的外皮。\n只能搭载一人。

高级\n强壮\n可以狂乱地奔跑\n惊吓步兵\n惊吓骑兵\n\n战象是凶猛而可怕的野兽，可以将人和马匹踩成肉泥。肩高超过3\n米，这些是高大又坏脾气的动物，它们在战斗中常会因恐惧和怒\n气而乱跑。当这种情形发生时，没有人－无论是敌是友－是安全\n的。因为这个缘故，骑乘者必须带着一把斧头和枪，这样若在必\n要时，可以刺穿它的头颅，杀死它。\n\n乘员装备弓，以攻击队形紧密的敌人，但是大象本身也是一种武\n器：它可以轻易踩踏敌人，将他们像破娃娃一样四处甩开。

战象是凶猛而可怕的野兽，可以将人和马匹\n踩成肉泥。

¬----------------

{greek_onagers}		石弩

{greek_onagers_descr}
发射火焰弹\n\n石弩是一种投石机，因为当它对着敌人发射时的巨大踢弹动作\n而被人开玩笑地称呼（石弩的英文名亦有“野驴”之意）。这种战争\n机器以扭曲的动物筋腱弹簧驱动，这是所能取得的最具弹力的\n物质。\n\n投掷臂以筋腱来提供张力。在向后拉并以钩固定后，它可以用极\n大的速度及射程来投掷大石。这种机器可以用来降低石制要塞\n的防御，但是也可以在战场上用来摧毁敌人的炮兵及干扰部队\n（虽然也可以直接杀死其中一些人）。\n\n石弩也可以用来发射火焰类的弹药（例如油罐），使它成为很具\n弹性的炮兵机械。

{greek_onagers_descr_short}
石弩是一种具变通性的投石机，可以对敌人\n的部队及要塞发射大石头或火罐。

{greek_scythed_chariots}		卷镰战车

精锐\n冲动\n可以狂乱地奔跑\n惊吓步兵\n\n卷镰战车是可怕的装备，全部覆以镰刀刀刃，可以砍倒所有在他\n们冲锋之时挡住他们去路的步兵。金属刀刃从每根车轴突出，砍\n倒步兵。但是他们有一点难以控制：这些部队不但急于攻击敌人，\n以致于他们没有接到命令也会发动攻击，而且他们会乱跑，攻击\n任何在附近的人－不分敌我。他们不是小部队，而他们的主要威\n力在于向敌人阵线冲锋。\n\n每一辆战士都由强力的马匹拉动，驾驶者亦穿着重盔甲。

{greek_scythed_chariots_descr_short}
卷镰战车是可怕的装备，全部覆以镰刀刀刃，\n可以砍倒所有在他们冲锋之时挡住他们去\n路的步兵。但是他们有一点不受控制！

{roman_peasant}		农民

{roman_peasant_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n农民不是高明的战士，但是在所有军队中，人数都极为重要，而强\n迫农民战斗是迅速而廉价地将大量人力投入战场的方法之一。\n他们没有什么军事概念，甚至不愿意战斗－他们宁可保护自己\n的家，也不愿意被拖进自己不在乎也不明白的战斗。但是在必须\n挖掘的时候，他们是很有用的！但是他们擅长观察地形，并能够隐\n蔽起来。

{roman_peasant_descr_short}
农民是不情愿的战士。投入战争只是艰苦生\n活的又一重担。

¬----------------

{roman_archer}		罗马弓箭兵

{roman_archer_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n罗马弓箭兵是重步兵的支援部队，在罗马的军备中完全居于次\n要地位。他们几乎是专职远程部队，缺少盔甲和不好的近身武器\n表示只有残忍或绝望的指挥官才会故意命令他们投入肉搏战。\n弓兵确实不是罗马战争的重要部份，但是罗马指挥官显然需要\n一些远程攻击部队，因此这些弓兵是从农民阶级中征召而来的。

{roman_archer_auxillia}		罗马辅助弓箭兵

{roman_archer_auxillia_descr}
有纪律\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n辅助弓箭兵是重型军团步兵的支援部队，在罗马军队中是很重\n要的支援角色。他们不适合在肉搏战中战斗，其装备也不适合进\n行此类战斗；他们的工作是提供远程火力支援，让军团进行主要\n战斗。由于罗马军队以重军团步兵为主力，因此其他类型的部队\n都是征召来做为辅助军团。他们的训练就和军团一样严格，辅助\n军团的纪律当然也一样严格。\n\n历史上，盖乌斯．马略改革之后，便引进职业辅助兵团与职业军团\n一同作战；罗马的军事机器全面翻新，整个军队以全职军人为主，\n辅助军团则在军事生涯结束之后获得罗马公民的身份。

{roman_light_infantry_descr_short}
罗马辅助轻步兵是标枪兵，为重型部队担任\n掩护任务。他们也用标枪攻击敌人的阵线。

{roman_city_militia}		城镇民兵

{roman_city_militia_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n城镇民兵是当地的工人和农夫，获得足够的训练之后保护他们\n的家园以及维护社会治安。他们不能取代训练有素的罗马军团，\n但是他们也是公民民兵，主要在于维护安定（可能也有救火的责\n任）。他们没有许多装备，因此他们要做的事情就是站在枪和盾\n牌后面，在敌人冲锋的时候坚守阵地。大致上来说，这就是他们\n要做的事。

{roman_hastati}		罗马青年军

{roman_hastati_descr}
强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n罗马青年军是早期共和国军团中较年轻的兵员，并在任何战斗\n中构成前排战线。他们的任务是削弱敌人，并加以阻挡，直到下\n一道罗马战线攻击并继续战斗。因此，他们本身是很有能力的部\n队。\n\n他们配备两支标枪，在进行肉搏战之前，在近距离投向敌人。他\n们还配备一把剑，一个铜盔，一面大盾及胸甲。其标枪的设计很\n巧妙，在枪尖后面有一个软倒刺；它在击中目标后就会变弯，无法\n再投掷回去；如果射中某人或某物，也会对其造成极大的影响。\n\n历史上，罗马青年军自费购买装备，往往没有较好的装备，加上年\n龄和财产的因素，就是他们以罗马青年军的身份战斗的原因。

{roman_infantry_auxillia_descr}
有纪律\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n罗马辅助步兵是拥有高度纪律而且强悍的枪兵，在战场上为罗\n马军团提供支援。他们是防御性步兵，主要保护重军团的侧翼，\n以免受到骑兵及类似的威胁；他们的训练和军团相当，可以产生\n纪律和坚强程度相差不多的兵员。这些部队必须和其他的罗马\n部队同行，因此不会轻易疲惫。他们是从帝国中的非罗马人中征\n召而来，这一点很容易，因为罗马公民并不多。\n\n历史上，罗马指挥官会将辅助兵团驻扎在离家很远的地方，这样\n他们就不会叛变。盖乌斯．马略的改革开始征召职业辅助兵团，\n与职业化的军团共处；罗马的军事机器全面翻新，整个军队以全\n职军人为主，辅助军团则在军事生涯结束之后获得罗马公民的\n身份。

超精锐！\n冲动\n非常强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n米尔麦罗角斗士是优秀的独行战士，普通的战士都不是他们的\n对手。他们几乎不穿盔甲－盔甲的用途是为了避免在竞技场中\n过快死去，而不是为了让他们在战斗中活命。通常他们会两人一\n组作战，但是在战场上，他们自己就是一个优秀的个体。\n\n他们不大在乎自己的安全，因为他们是死囚：在社会中是被唾弃，\n被咒诅，不能接触的阶级。他们战斗，他们得胜，他们也许可以获\n得自由 ... 到最后。

{roman_light_cavalry}		罗马轻骑兵

{roman_light_cavalry_descr}
可以组成楔形队形\n\n罗马轻骑兵是配备枪的轻骑兵。在罗马的战争系统中，他们的用\n处在于赶走标枪兵及追击敌人。轻骑兵这就指骑兵，他们是从社\n会的富有阶级征召而来。他们穿着轻盔甲，只携带枪和盾。因此，\n他们可以向敌人冲锋，但是如果与稳固的枪兵正面冲突，可能会\n被切成碎片。应该用他们来保护部队侧翼或后方，或是使远程部\n队和标枪兵远离罗马重步兵（他们是罗马军队的真正主力）。\n\n历史上，罗马轻骑兵是从贵族阶级征召而来－基本上他们是饲\n养得起自己马匹的富人－而且他们自己花钱来购买马匹和装备。

{roman_cavalry_auxillia}		罗马辅助骑兵

{roman_cavalry_auxillia_descr}
可以组成环形骑射队形\n\n罗马辅助骑兵是配备标枪的骑兵，他们可以迅速攻击，在敌人来\n不及反应之前即消失。他们不穿着盔甲，但是携带盾牌及剑，因\n此在必要时也可进行肉搏战。但是他们最好用于冲锋，骚扰大批\n敌人（例如重步兵）。这种部队是不可能追上标枪骑兵的！他们不\n太适合对抗其他的标枪兵－在面对可以闪躲的目标时，他们的\n标枪大多数会浪费掉－但是在追击逃跑的敌人时，他们却相当\n有用。

罗马辅助骑兵是配备标枪的骑兵，他们可以\n用闪电般的速度攻击和后撤。

{roman_heavy_cavalry}		罗马军团骑兵

{roman_heavy_cavalry_descr}
高级\n有纪律\n强壮\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n罗马军团骑兵是配备枪的重骑兵，采用突击和凶猛的大举冲锋\n以获取胜利。他们是强悍而有纪律的骑士－与许多由顽固而鲁\n莽的“贵族”组成的骑兵比较起来优秀得多。若用于攻击标枪兵\n和远程部队，他们可能会成为炮灰，但是他们能够攻破重步兵的\n队形，并且强烈打击其他骑兵。但是他们在攻击有准备的枪兵时，\n必须特别小心，当然也要避免正面冲突。\n\n他们穿着良好的盔甲并携带盾牌；他们的武器是枪和长剑，两者\n在高人的手中都是致命武器。\n\n历史上，罗马最优秀的骑兵部队编制成“翼”，而非队，并且是从罗\n马边境的骑马民族中征召而来。一般而言，这表示骑兵大多数不\n是意大利人，与军团的组成正好相反。罗马人发展出步兵的战法，\n并依赖其他被视为辅助部队的军队提供支援，例如骑兵。

{roman_praetorian_cavalry_descr}
精锐\n有纪律\n强壮\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n罗马禁卫骑兵是精英中的精英：专职的护卫，当做重骑兵使用。\n可想而知，罗马禁卫骑兵的训练很严格，而且非常彻底。这些人\n是罗马境内最优秀、最强悍、最坚定的士兵，而且是优秀的骑兵！\n身为重骑兵，他们的任务是冲击敌人阵线，将他们赶离战场，并在\n近战时使用其骑兵长剑作战（比原先军团使用的剑更长）。\n\n历史上，原本的禁卫军是被选来保护统帅帐篷－军团中最大的\n帐篷。这些人成为重要将军的护卫，后来成为精英，与原先的军\n团有所区别。直到最后几名帝王时，禁卫军才开始进行反叛和暗\n杀，最后甚至将帝国出卖给出价最高的人！

{roman_ballista}		弩炮

{roman_ballista_descr}
强壮（炮兵）\n\n弩炮是以筋腱弹射的武器，看起来像一把巨大的十字弓。它的射\n程极远，一发可以刺穿数人！\n\n虽然弩炮看起来像是一把巨大的十字弓，但它的工作原理却很\n不一样。两只臂杆使用动物筋腱制成的绳索来推动。这种有弹\n力的材料被拉伸，成为极具弹力的弹簧。臂杆被拉向后方，造成\n更大的张力，在弩炮上装上弓矢，然后以极大的速度射向敌人。\n\n使用者要保持两个筋腱的张力相同，以保证弩炮的精确度，但是\n因为筋腱不能受潮，因此弩炮在潮湿气候中效果不佳。

{roman_onager}		石弩

{roman_onager_descr}
强壮（炮兵）\n发射火焰弹\n\n石弩是一种投石机，因为它对着敌人发射时的巨大弹射动作而\n被人戏称为“野驴”。这种战争器械以拉伸的动物筋腱提供弹力，\n这是当时所能取得的最具弹力的东西。\n\n投掷臂以筋腱来提供弹力。在向后拉并以钩固定后，它可以以极\n大的速度及射程来投掷大石。这种机器可以用来打击石制要塞，\n也可以在战场上用来摧毁敌人的炮兵及骚扰部队（虽然也可以\n直接杀死一些人）。\n\n石弩也可以用来发射火焰弹（例如油罐），使它成为很具灵活的\n炮兵器械。

{roman_onager_descr_short}
石弩是一种弹性的投石机，可以对敌人部队\n及要塞发射大石头或火焰弹。

¬----------------

{roman_repeating_ballistae}		连弩炮

{roman_repeating_ballistae_descr}
强壮（炮兵）\n\n连弩炮是半自动炮兵武器。只要装备有弓矢，并且上好机关，它\n就会不停地射击。设计的原理和石弩类似：以拉伸的动物筋腱来\n提供动力。它采用一个缠绕装置将支臂后拉，把弓矢放入固定位\n置，然后放开一个搭扣以发射－只要转动绞盘，这个动作就会重\n复地进行。\n\n这使它很适合于建立“攻击”支援阵地，或打击大批的敌人队伍；\n在这些时候射击频率比精确度重要。

擅长躲在森林之中\n可以躲藏在长草丛中\n能挖坑道\n\n雇佣标枪兵是轻装备、移动迅速的标枪兵，他们用标枪准确的攻\n击敌人。\n\n他们的优势是能够在崎岖地形中较快移动，并且远离敌人。他们\n也携带长剑和小盾。\n\n因此他们可以轻易对付其他标枪兵，但是若在开阔地被骑兵攻\n击，就会毫无招架之力。他们最适合用于战术突袭，攻击没有发\n现他们的敌人。

{merc_samnite}		萨莫奈佣兵

{merc_samnite_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n萨莫奈佣兵是值得信赖的轻步兵，但是不要让他们坚守战线的\n重要防区。他们无法抵御专业的重步兵，但是他们的枪、铜铠甲\n及大盾使他们适合对抗轻骑兵及中装骑兵。\n\n萨莫奈佣兵来自意大利中央及南部的亚平宁高地。由于该地区\n已经被罗马控制，因此他们往往在罗马敌方的部队中服役。

¬----------------

{merc_thracian}		色雷斯佣兵

{merc_thracian_descr}
冲动\n擅长躲在森林之中\n\n色雷斯佣兵是不错的蛮族战士，擅长使用特别的弯刀做武器，很\n适合近战肉搏。对任何指挥官而言，他们都是一支难缠的队伍：\n他们的战斗力很不错。\n\n他们的武器看起来很锋利冷酷。弯曲刀面的内侧也非常锋利，形\n状像把小弧度的镰刀。只要一击，它就可以砍下四肢。每个色雷\n斯佣兵都携带小盾，除了头盔之外，这就是他们唯一的保护，所以\n防护力稍微欠缺，无法抵御大规模冲击！\n\n色雷斯人因好斗而著名，而凯旋的战士往往会唱着歌回到营地，\n将砍下的头颅悬在武器上。这种态度使得他们有时候会不听命\n令而作战。曾有一位希腊作者说，如果他们停止内战的话，他们\n可以征服世界！

{merc_thracian_descr_short}
色雷斯佣兵适合攻击敌方紧密编队的步兵。\n他们是不容小觑的战士！

{merc_bastarnae_descr}
高级\n冲动\n擅长躲在森林之中\n\n巴斯塔奈人是个很凶猛的民族，来自巴尔干半岛北部，喜欢近战\n肉搏。据说在战斗中没有比他们更凶猛的部队，对任何指挥官而\n言，他们都是一支可怕的队伍：他们不轻易溃逃。\n\n他们的武器看起来很锋利冷酷。弯曲刀面的内侧也非常锋利，形\n状像把小弧度的镰刀。只要一击，它就可以砍下四肢。每个巴斯\n塔奈佣兵都携带小盾，除了头盔之外，这就是他们唯一的保护，但\n是缺少铠甲并不会令这些无惧的战士退却！\n\n他们大部分人会刺青并染蓝头发，这些战士唯一担心的是能否\n第一个冲入敌阵。

{merc_bastarnae_descr_short}
近战的凶猛战士，适合打击其他步兵。巴斯塔\n奈佣兵可能在没有命令的情况下发动攻击。

高级\n冲动\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n萨尔马提亚雇佣骑兵是来自大草原的重骑兵。他们是优秀的战士，\n重盔甲，装备精良，在全力冲锋时几乎无法阻挡。\n\n他们穿着炼甲铠甲，而且还用动物角质制成鳞片加固铠甲，可以\n保护膝部以上的身体。每个萨尔马提亚骑兵都双手使用重枪，在冲\n锋之时使用。如果敌人没有溃散，每个人携带的一柄剑就派上用\n场了，但是他们没有盾牌。像许多精锐部队一样，他们不会擅自\n对敌人冲锋。\n\n萨尔马提亚人以盗匪著称，也有许多人成为佣兵。历史上，有数千\n人被派往不列颠，在服役结束后便定居于该地。

{merc_sarmatian_cavalry_descr_short}
萨尔马提亚雇佣骑兵是优秀的重骑兵，尽管他\n们有盗匪的恶名。

{merc_horse_archers}		西徐亚雇佣弓骑兵

{merc_horse_archers_descr}
强壮\n可以组成环形骑射队形\n\n西徐亚雇佣弓骑兵是优秀的弓骑兵，可以骚扰打击敌人。\n\n在开阔的大草原上，弓骑兵是战争的主角，而这些佣兵是非常厉\n害的骑士和弓箭手。\n\n他们的战术往往是包围敌人，射出大量的箭雨，直到削弱敌人实\n力，再让重装部队发动全面攻击。他们良好的骑术让对手难以追\n击他们，即使轻骑兵也一样；而且他们有不错的耐力，是在长期的\n长途迁徙中练出来的。\n\n西徐亚人并不是文明的种族，用人皮覆盖其箭囊，而且数月不洗\n澡。在营地里时，他们比“文明”的部队更适应其军旅生活！

{merc_spanish_infantry}		西班牙佣兵

{merc_spanish_infantry_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n这些西班牙佣兵是装备良好的轻步兵，罗马人称他们为圆盾兵，\n因为他们使用大椭圆盾牌。他们配备重标枪及剑，先用标枪攻击\n敌人，然后进行肉搏战，作战方式与罗马军团相似。\n\n在西班牙山区里磨练了几个世纪，使这些人成为强悍而英勇的\n战士。\n\n历史上，后期的罗马军团使用的剑即受到这些人的影响。罗马军\n队在第一次布匿战争中遭遇大批盾牌兵之后，开始设计使用这\n种新的武器。

{merc_spanish_infantry_descr_short}
西班牙佣兵是全面的轻步兵，必要时也可以\n进行突袭。

¬----------------

{merc_eastern_infantry}		东方佣兵

{merc_eastern_infantry_descr}
能挖坑道\n\n这些佣兵是枪兵，他们缺少盔甲和训练，所以他们不是大多数职\n业步兵的对手。他们使用约两米长的枪及一面大盾。\n\n这些佣兵中很多人曾是农民或城市贫民，被东方国王征召入伍；\n由于一无所有，他们便选择了军旅生涯。\n\n虽然他们的数量不少，但是往往没有得到相应的俸禄，而他们的\n动机也有点问题。就个体来说，他们并非高明的战士，但是成群\n结队时可以用来防守阵线，对抗轻骑兵及素质不高的步兵。

{merc_eastern_infantry_descr_short}
枪兵可防御轻骑兵并提供有效的防御，但是\n因为队形紧密，难以抵御远程攻击。

{merc_cretan_archers_descr}
高级\n强壮\n能挖坑道\n\n克里特弓箭手的本领闻名于世。他们可以用暴雨般的箭雨极大\n的打击敌人，而不只是骚扰他们！\n\n这些人可以在主要战斗开始之前极大的破坏敌人阵线，或是放\n在防御部队阵线（例如枪兵）的后方。但是如果缺少保护，他们很\n容易受到骑兵及轻标枪兵的攻击，而他们在肉搏战中没有什么\n机会。\n\n历史上，克里特用来代表一种战斗方式，而不是一个地区，因此这\n些佣兵有许多来自希腊世界的不同地区。出生克里特的人在各\n大城市及城镇中都很受重视，并被邀请担任箭术教官。

{merc_greek_hoplites_descr}
强壮\n可以组成方阵\n能挖坑道\n\n雇佣长枪兵以方阵队形最具战斗力。以这种方式作战时，他们是\n对抗步兵或骑兵的强大力量。长枪兵的战术很简单：以常规队形\n向敌人推进，然后组成方阵，让每一名士兵受到重迭的盾牌的保\n护。然后尽快逼近敌人，开始战斗。他们受过良好的训练，有绝佳\n的耐力，也是世界上最有效的军队之一。\n\n古希腊的军事力量基础是长枪兵以及并肩作战的思想，而现在\n这些部队也是世界中最有效的佣兵之一。长枪兵穿着皮胸甲，并\n且携带圆盾及枪。使用复合铜抢尖，可以深深插入地面而且不像\n铁那样容易生锈。如果枪杆折断，还可以做为搏斗武器使用。

{merc_libyan_infantry}		利比亚佣兵

可以躲藏在长草丛中\n擅长躲在森林之中\n\n利比亚佣兵是标枪兵。他们在崎岖地形中表现不错，但是若在开\n阔地被骑兵追击，就难以招架了。这些佣兵在双方战线靠近之时，\n用标枪攻击敌人阵线－标枪是利比亚的传统武器。他们在肉搏\n战中无法支撑太久。他们的装备和其他的皮盾兵相似：携带标枪、\n剑和小盾（通常使用硬质皮革覆盖）。除了皮帽之外，他们没有穿\n戴别的盔甲。\n\n他们的机动力可以远离麻烦，但是就和标枪兵一样，在开阔地上\n无法招架骑兵。他们最适用于崎岖地形及森林地形，他们可以隐\n蔽起来，并在战斗开始之前突袭敌人阵线。

{merc_numidian_cavalry_descr}
高级\n强壮\n可以组成环形骑射队形\n\n努米底亚骑兵是优秀的标枪骑兵，用标枪削弱敌军力量。努米底\n亚骑兵即使不是西地中海最优秀的，也可算是非洲最优秀的骑\n兵。这些标枪骑兵使用标枪，可谓是敌人的梦魇，因为几乎不可\n能在战斗中确定他们的位置。\n\n他们的战术是用致命的标枪攻击敌人，然后在敌人冲锋时迅速\n后撤。如果敌人坚守阵地，那就会统统死在标枪下；如果他们逃\n走，努米底亚骑兵可以用马踩死他们！\n\n努米底亚人是天生的骑士，他们不使用马鞍或缰绳，只使用一根\n棍子来指挥马匹。但是他们的动作就像鹰一样优雅。\n\n在他们家乡广阔的干旱地带里，努米底亚骑兵拥有极好的耐力。

{merc_barbarian_cavalry_descr}
冲动\n可以组成楔形队形\n\n蛮族雇佣骑兵骑的是强健且稳当的马，是优秀的轻骑兵，适合侦\n察及追击逃跑的敌人。他们是从部落的精英中征召而来，即使只\n是佣兵，仍然会为了自己的荣誉而英勇作战。这可能会令他们不\n太听命令，在战斗前难以控制，毕竟在战斗中获得荣誉总是件开\n心的事。他们使用的枪和盾很好。\n\n他们最适合用来攻击敌军已经散乱的阵线，对抗其他的骑兵和\n追击逃跑的敌人。虽然他们是勇敢和优秀的骑士，他们却缺少\n“正规”骑兵的纪律，在肉搏战中表现可能也不太好。他们的主要\n武器是震撼和最初的冲击。

高级\n强壮\n惊吓骑兵\n惊吓步兵\n可以狂乱地奔跑\n\n战象是巨大、凶猛而难以驯服的野兽，在战斗中很恐怖。它们是\n最终极的震撼部队。它们被用来冲破敌人阵线，并吓跑敌人。\n\n每头象背上的搭载台上坐着两名弓箭手攻击敌人，当然也可以\n驾驭战象去踩踏敌人。而战象的问题在于，当它们受伤时可能会\n惊慌而到处乱跑。在这种情况下，不论敌我，挡路的人都有危险。\n因此驯象员要携带枪和斧，这样才能在这些慌乱的巨兽造成我\n方太多伤亡之前打爆它们的头，以便杀死它们。

{naval_quinquireme}		五列战船

{naval_quinquireme_descr}
\n\n五列战船是威力强大而航速较慢的战舰，主要用于舰队编队行\n动。它的大吨位使它很难沉没。\n\n大量的船员都是划桨手，因为每一支桨需要五个人操作；这样提\n供的动力很强劲，但是要始终保持战船的冲击力和航速却让船\n员很容易疲惫。因此，五列战船载有一大批后备船员，再加上船\n上的炮兵和指挥人员，数量则更多。作为攻击的方式－当你不能\n撞沈敌舰时，炮轰或强行登占敌舰将成为最有效的战术。

能挖坑道\n\n伊比利亚步兵是行动迅速的近战步兵。他们不是训练最好的部\n队，但他们是廉价的战士。他们是迦太基世界中最基础的部队之\n一。每个伊比利亚步兵携带一面盾及短剑，但是其它保护就只是\n一顶头盔：他们依靠速度和机动而不是盔甲。他们最适合用来对\n付敌人的枪兵，而且和其他的步兵一样，对骑兵攻击毫无招架之\n力。

\n\n天鸦舰是用于舰队海战的强大战舰，也是普通五列战船的加强\n版。它的吨位使它难以沉没。\n\n大量的船员都是划桨手，因为每一支桨需要五个人操作；这样提\n供的动力很强劲，但是要始终保持战船的冲击力和航速却让船\n员很容易疲惫。\n\n天鸦舰在第一次布匿战争中由罗马设计，目的是使海战转变成\n陆战，让罗马的步兵优势成为决定性力量。它有一个铁质的“鸦\n嘴”用来撞击敌人的甲板，并用铰链跳板缠住敌舰。一举达到两\n个目的：为船员架一座桥以便登上敌舰战斗，同时将两艘船锁在\n一起，让战斗朝有利自己的方向进行。

{naval_decere}		七列战船

{naval_decere_descr}
\n\n强大的七列战船是古地中海的无敌战舰。在吨位、船员数及战斗\n力方面都让其他船只相形见绌。七列战船是最大的战船之一，最\n多可搭载 850 人－当然，大部份是划桨手。\n\n它的战斗力很可怕。除了几座战斗塔之外，七列战船还携带石弩\n和弩炮，用以炮轰敌人，加上大批船员负责登舰及防御。至少有\n一座弩炮用于向敌舰发射鱼叉抓钩，以便拉近敌舰并加以摧毁。\n\n就战术而言，抓钩用处极大，它可以扣住较小的船只，在远距离就\n可以攻击敌人。

¬----------------

{naval_boats}		战船

{naval_boats_descr}
\n\n这些战船可以出海，但是吨位小，可以沿着航线运载少量人或货\n物。就像当时的其他船只一样，这些船可以利用帆乘风前进或在\n战斗中以浆推动。\n\n这种船主要包括凯尔特平底小船、日耳曼窄船及非洲小船。大部\n份蛮族没有罗马人、迦太基及希腊那样“文明”的造船技术，但是\n这些船只的设定稳定性也是不错的。船员都是凭直觉和航海经\n验帮助他们安全地长距离航行。

这些战船可以出海，但是吨位小，可以沿着航\n线运载少量人或货物。

¬----------------

{naval_large_boats}		大型战船

{naval_large_boats_descr}
\n\n大型战船是可以进行战斗的船只，其乘员足可在必要时登上敌\n舰进行战斗。但是这些船只不是较“文明”战舰的对手。不过这些\n船只比其他许多为了地中海而设计的船只要优秀得多。它们可\n以携带大量的货物，进行跨洋远航。

¬----------------

{naval_pirates}		海盗船

{naval_pirates_descr}
\n\n海盗喜欢使用双列战船，在猎杀低速及没有保护的商船时，是迅\n速而致命的掠夺者；它在遇到较大的战舰时也可以支持得住。双\n列战船结合力量和良好的操纵性，不需要大量船员。\n\n海盗在地中海沿岸每个偏远的地区、混乱的港口，以及非常独立\n的城市里出现（有一些城市应该是守法的）。海盗就像苍蝇－总\n是出现在富足的地方，而且在帝国的手挥舞时，只会暂时退开。\n杀死一只苍蝇，就会有更多的苍蝇来代替它的位置。\n\n就和贸易一样，有时候海盗可以累积足够的力量，能威胁伟大的\n海上强权。

{naval_pirates_descr_short}
海盗喜欢使用双列战船，在猎杀低速及没有\n保护的商船时，是迅速而致命的掠夺者。

{alexander}	亚历山大

{alexander_descr}							
Elite\nHardy\nInspires Friendly Units\n\nThe Royal Squadron, or basilike ile, is a double-strength unit of Personal Companions under the command of Alexander himself. Unlike his Persian adversaries, Alexander is a leader in the heroic mould, always in the thick of the action, an inspiration to his men and a terror to his foes!\n\nThe Companion, or hetaroi, Cavalry are recruited from the Macedonian nobility and are a military elite. The military reforms of Alexander's father Philip altered the function of the cavalry from merely screening the army's flanks to a more proactive role. The development of the devastatingly penetrative wedge formation completed the transformation. Equipped with protective cuirasses and wielding the xyston, a long double-ended stabbing spear their mobility makes them the hammer of the Macedonian army!

{alexander_descr_short}	
As king, Alexander's own bodyguard unit is a double-strength contingent of the formidable Companion cavalry. They can change the balance of a battle with one well-judged charge in the right place.						

									                           
¬----------------


{allied_cavalry}	同盟骑兵

{allied_cavalry_descr}					
Hardy\nCan Form Wedge\nCan Hide In Forests\n\nThe allied cavalry were composed of men drawn from many of the Greek states which made up the Corinthian League. Though unlikely to be of quite the same outstanding quality as the Companion or Thessalian cavalry, it does seem likely that they  were medium to heavy cavalry probably armed with spears and wearing cuirasses. As such they are best deployed against an enemy's flank or rear or against disordered or fleeing troops.\n\nAs with most cavalry units, charging spearmen head-on with this unit is unlikely to make a commander popular back home in Greece!

{allied_cavalry_descr_short}					
Spear-armed medium cavalry best used against light troops or those already routing.

{auxiliary_thracian_cavalry}	色雷斯辅助骑兵

{auxiliary_thracian_cavalry_descr}		
Hardy\nCan Form Cantabrian Circle\nCan Hide In Forests\n\nLike the Agrianian light infantry, the Thracian Cavalry was contributed to the Macedonian army by a client kingdom. Wearing little or no armour aids their speed but does little for their chances against an enemy set to recieve them. However, with so many relatively slow-moving heavy Macedonian units usually present on the battlefield, the Thracians are useful for harrying lightly-armed and mobile enemy troops.\n\nHistorically, Alexander used repeated charges of his light cavalry to hamper the Persian cavalry, leaving his heavier horse with greater opportunity to find weaknesses in the enemy line. This may explain why the Macedonian king rarely seems to have had a full complement of light cavalry! This auxilary cavalry will make its greatest contribution to the butcher's bill by chasing down fleeing enemy troops.

Expert at Hiding in Woods\nCan Sap\n\nThough these men are not the product of a cohesive military training program, the use of the bow as a hunting tool is widespread, so the pool of those skilled in its use is large. Life on the borders of powerful states such as Greece and Persia is tenuous, but such simple folk defend their meagre possessions so fiercely that attacking them is often more trouble than it's worth.\n\nSkills learned on the hunt translate well to the battlefield. These men are able to shoot with accuracy, frustrating and disrupting enemy formations. They can also easily hide in vegetation, ready to spring out in ambush. Poorly armed besides their bows and wearing no armour, they are next to useless should the enemy come to grips with them though.

Smaller lighter mounts are often more valuable in warmer climes than heavier horses which require more water and feed and cope less well with the heat. Lightly armoured with spears and shields, these men are best in the role of scouts or for harrassing lighter troops and cutting down those fleeing the battlefield. The prospect of loot and the desire to make a name for themselves can lead to indiscipline though, including unauthorised charges. If they can master these often self-destructive urges, their best chance of success is to come at the enemy from an unexpected direction and crash into an undefended flank or rear.

Elite\nImpetuous\nHardy\nExpert at Hiding in Forests\n\nSickle-men are infantry armed with short heavy bronze war sickles  well-suited to inflicting massive injuries on almost any opponent which they can come to grips with. Wearing bronze  breastplates, greaves and helms and carrying a large shield, they are able to trade blows with heavy infantry and even heavy  cavalry once it has become bogged down in a melee, though their lack of spears means they will suffer casualties when charged  by horse units./n/nHistorically, sickle-men where used by several of the peoples around Anatolia and beyond. During the  battle of Salamis around 496 BC, the Cyprian prince Onesilos came face to face with the Persian commander Artybios whose  warhorse was trained to rear and kick. Onesilos seized a shield and deflected the animal's hooves, giving a comrade the  opportunity to sever its forelegs with a war sickle before killing the Persian general.

{barbarian_chosen_swordsmen_descr_short}
The war sickle is a brutal bladed chopping weapon capable of dealing massive injuries to most foes, including stationary cavalry. The excellent armour of these troops also allows them to survive longer than most at the heart of a battle.

Centuries spent in petty skirmishes or ambushing unwary travellers teaches a man the value of a trusty blade, and in such  areas men seldom travel far without a sword on their hip. In battle, these men form an indisciplined but enthusiastic rabble,  eager to charge their enemy regardless of orders and redden their blades! Since they are not professional troops, few wear  much by way of armour, relying instead on naked ferocity to break their foes quickly. If a disciplined enemy does manage to  hold in the face of their charge though, casualties amongst barbarian militia swordsmen will mount up swiftly.


{barbarian_naked_fanatics_descr_short}
Armed with swords, these warlike men are capable of inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy as a result of their enthusiatic charges - often without orders. Their lack of armour means that they will suffer in the face of determined resistance and at the hands of missile units.

Such expectations are based on simple home-spun wisdom since death is exactly what they are most likely to discover on the battlefield!

Untrained and ready to run under even light pressure, these are far from line of battle troops, but their deaths can buy time for better units to come up. Unsuprisingly, peasants are adept at hiding amongst whatever trees they can find and are happy to wait there patiently for as long as is necessary!

Their axes can do terrible damage, especially amongst light or disordered foot troops, whilst their shields offer them a good degree of protection when trading blows with more determined adversaries.

The military reforms of Alexander's father Philip altered the function of the cavalry from merely screening the army's flanks to a more proactive role. The development of the devastatingly penetrative wedge formation completed the transformation. Typically, Alexander opened battles by manoeuvering his cavalry before crashing into the resulting gaps in the enemy line to create mayhem.\n\nThe Companion's mobility and the impact of their charge complements the slower Macedonian infantry perfectly and makes them the hammer of Alexander's army!

Though determined spearmen will eventually stop them, they will pay a heavy price to do so with many survivors left to face life shorter by a foot or two - or even a whole leg! Far better to use missile and skirmish troops to shoot the horses out from under them before closing to exact vengeance on any unfortunate survivors.

As well as their spears, they carry short bows with a limited number of arrows, and shields. This equipment makes them flexible troops able to stand in the main battle line and offer some reply to enemy skirmishers, cavalry and infantry alike. The Persian military mindset was based strongly around the welfare of the senior commander in the field. Should he fall or flee, the command structure often broke down and with it the morale of the men.

{indian_slingers_descr}
Can Hide In Forests\nCan Sap\n\nIndian slingers are much valued by commanders for their ability to maintain a barrage on an enemy unit for long periods. They can supplement the ammunition in their satchels with the stones on the ground at their feet, so they are much less likely to run out than other missile troops. Using slings of varying length according to the range of their target, their shots strike home with a terrible impact which can knock a man back even if it strikes his armour. Other than a knife and the simple clothes they stand up in, they carry nothing to assist them in a fight at close quarters, preferring instead to retreat to the shelter provided by friendly infantry when such danger threatens.


{indian_slingers_descr_short}
Useful missile troops with plentiful ammunition, but best kept clear of enemy melee units, especially cavalry.

Can Hide In Forests\nCan Sap\n\nIndian spearmen are easily recruited militia, who are good for defence against a range of opponents. They are drawn from among the peasantry, told who to stand next to in the line and sent into battle. They are however given large shields, and the weight of numbers which they provide also serves as some sort of defence. Their spears will defeat a frontal cavalry charge and used in combination with other units they can even tackle heavy infantry. A wily commander will spot their worth for pinning opponents on a battlefield to allow his heavier units to come to grips with their foe.

Though they carry a pelta shield to provide some defence, they are best advised to retreat in the face of any attempt by the enemy to come to grips with them as their knives are of little use in close battle.

The willingness, perhaps even the eagerness of the Persians to employ mercenary hoplites from Greece as the hardcore of their infantry suggests that the Kardakes were of inferior quality, certainly when measured against their Macedonian adversaries. However, a spear is a spear and if a man can find the courage to set it and stand firm in the face of an onrushing enemy he may win himself honour, for what it's worth, and perhaps even the chance to see another sun rise!

In large numbers, the arrow storm which they can create is a deadly flail which can scour lightly armoured opponents from the battlefield and even inflict heavy casualties on heavier troops to disrupt their formations. To aid mobility, they wear no armour themselves so should be kept out of hand-to-hand combat, especially with cavalry units against whom their fleetness of foot and stamina is little defence. A common tactic for Persian commanders was to deploy Mardian archers with spear-armed infantry in support to provide a refuge if a counterattack came. As well as the heavy war arrows which they commonly use, Mardian archers can use flame arrows to destroy siege equipment and terrify close-packed enemy units.

{persian_infantry_descr}
Can Hide In Forests\nCan Sap\n\nPersian infantry wield spears in battle and are equipped with large stout shields. If truth be told though, they are cut from poor cloth since most are from the lowest echelons of Persian society, dragged from their fields or the gutter, shoved into a rough line and marched off to fight their king's enemies. Given half a chance many will desert, but with nowhere to run they often join the ranks of the mercenaries where they can, in theory at least, expect better pay in exchange for their blood. For all that, they are at least numerous and desperation can lead them to some suprising accomplishments given the right circumstances. Like all spearmen they offer a good degree of protection against cavalry and they can handle most infantry for a time at least.

Can Form Phalanx\nCan Hide In Forests\nCan Sap\n\nEvolved by Alexander's father, Philip II, the Macedonian Phalangists are a heavily armed, heavily armoured unit trained to fight in phalanx formation.  Whilst the standard contemporary Greek hoplite had shed much of his heavy wargear to aid mobility and stamina on the battlefield, the development of effective heavy cavalry tactics by the Macedonians removed such constraints from their infantry. Clad in heavy bronze helms, cuirasses and greaves worn over leather armour and bearing hoplite shields the phalangists are able to present a formidable hedge of longer heavier spears than any infantry unit of the time. Though exceptionally slow-moving when in formation and vulnerable to the flanks and rear, the Phalangists provide a stable platform around which Alexander can base his wider battle plans.

Wearing little or no armour aids their speed but does little for their chances against an enemy set to recieve them. However, with so many heavy Macedonian units usually present on the battlefield, the Prodromoi are useful for harrying lightly-armed and mobile enemy troops. Historically, Alexander used repeated charges of his light cavalry to hamper the Persian cavalry, leaving his heavier horse with greater opportunity to find weaknesses in the enemy line. This may explain why the Macedonian king rarely seems to have had a full complement of light cavalry! The Prodromoi will make their greatest contribution to the butcher's bill by chasing down fleeing enemy troops.

Of course the discipline and coordination required to maintain the phalanx formation has a cost in terms of mobility and vulnerability to the flanks and rear, but the indomitable courage of these men can often enable them to adapt to such threats when lesser men might break and run. Stout breastplates and helms complete their armament so that they can often overpower even heavy infantry units ranged against them. But equipment and tactics are worthless without men of sufficient mettle to put them to best use. The Sacred Band is formed exclusively from male couples in the belief that mutual love and a desire not to fail one another in battle will make them unbreakable.

Their name comes from their shields or pelte which, along with their mobility in broken terrain, provides their only form of defence. Expert at concealing themselves in even light cover, they are able to leap out in ambush, hurling their javelins with the aid of throwing straps for increased range and then retiring at speed to safety. Against slow-moving troops they are deadly, and some contemporary accounts credit them with the total annihilation of entire phalanx units. They also carry short swords which gives them the capability of dealing with other light infantry fairly effectively, though little can be expected of them against heavier troops, and cavalry is their nemesis.

Together with their javelins, they are armed with a short sword and shield which, coupled with their innate aggression and mobility in rough terrain, makes them useful in close engagements with light troops, and for ambushes. However, the lack of any other armour means that once their javelins are spent, they are best kept away from heavier enemy troops, especially cavalry.\n\nIn the early 4th century BC, the Illyrian's famous king Bardylis lead them in many battles against the neighbouring kingdom of Macedonia which he almost destroyed before Philip of Macedon brought him to heel in 359 BC.  Their early successes gave the Illyrian's a heartfelt love of loot though, and their desire to gain more often leads to rash behaviour in battle.

Happiest in the thick of a fight, they rely primarily on attack as their best form of defense and are best used to shatter the enemy's heaviest units, creating openings for other supporting units to exploit.\n\nThough the Thracians retained their own language and culture, infighting between their various tribes prevented them from ever wholly uniting and in the 4th century BC Philip of Macedon conquered them. Contemporary views held that if the Thracians would ever stop fighting each other for long enough they could conquer the world! This warlike nature means that the Thracians cannot be trusted to resist the temptation to charge in battle without orders.

Expert at Hiding in Forests\n\nSlingers are much valued by commanders for their ability to maintain a barrage on an enemy unit for long periods. They can supplement the ammunition in their satchels with the stones on the ground at their feet, so they are much less likely to run out than other missile troops. Using slings of varying length according to the range of their target, their shots strike home with a terrible impact which can knock a man back even if it strikes his armour. Other than a knife and the simple clothes they stand up in, they carry nothing to assist them in a fight at close quarters, preferring instead to retreat to the shelter provided by friendly infantry when such danger threatens.

{merc_numidian_cavalry}	沙漠散骑兵

{merc_numidian_cavalry_descr}
Superior\nHardy\nCan Form Cantabrian Circle\n\nMercenary desert cavalry skirmishers are amongst the best mounted skirmishers to terrorise the ancient battlefield. Cries of dismay from the opposing ranks traditionally greet their appearance on the field, swiftly followed by cries of agony as their showers of javelins begin to find their mark. Their light fleet-footed mounts enable them to outride almost all attempts to intercept them, even from light cavalry, and once the hopeless pursuit has been abandoned it is certain that they will return to harry their enemies once more. The abilities of the horses is matched by the skills of their riders, able to steer with their knees and  occaisionally a stick so that the whole group can change direction with seemingly one thought 'like a flock of birds'. A concerted and coordinated effort from several cavalry units working in unison may eventually pin them down, but by then the battle may be lost.
 

{merc_numidian_cavalry_descr_short}
The mobility and stamina of these mounted mercenary javelin skirmishers makes them a nightmare to pin down.

{persian_peltast}	波斯游击步兵

{persian_peltast_descr}
Can Hide In Forests\nCan Hide In Long Grass\nCan Sap\n\nAdept at remaining hidden in a range of cover, Persian peltasts are useful for ambushing an enemy and skirmishing to disrupt their formations and pull them out of position. Equipped with the pelte shield from which all peltasts draw their name, together with a number of javelins and a short sword, they are also able to tackle other skirmishers and some light infantry, though heavier troops and especially cavalry will make short work of them unless their general is quick to recall them.
 

{persian_peltast_descr_short}
Adept at remaining hidden in a range of cover, Persian peltasts are skirmishers useful for ambushing an enemy. They can give a good account of themselves in close combat with other skirmishers and light infantry but are likely to suffer if pitted against heavy troops or cavalry.

{hoplites}	重装步兵

{hoplites_descr}							
Can Sap\nCan Form Phalanx\nCan Hide In Forests\n\nOn ancient battlefields the hoplite reigned as king for centuries, and many armies of the time were built around a core of hoplite infantry. Greece, their country of origin, produced many such phalanx-trained troops willing to sell their services to the highest bidder, whoever he may be.\n\nHoplites were trained to close with the enemy and adopt the phalanx formation with each man's hoplon shield overlapping that of his neighbour for mutual defence, the foremost ranks presenting an impenetrable thicket of spears and the rear ranks angling their spears forward to provide some protection from missiles. As such, they are a formidable proposition when approaching head on, but their close formation is slow to manoeuvre and is vulnerable to the flanks and rear. Cavalry stand little chance against them unless their angle of attack is calculated to exploit these weaknesses and a contest between similar hoplite units usually comes down to whichever has the greatest numbers to prevail in the resulting grim shoving match.

{hoplites_descr_short}							
Tough phalanx infantry which has dominated military thinking for hundreds of years. A lack of mobility means they are slow to respond to threats to their vulnerable flanks and rear.

{barbarian_chosen_swordsmen}		蛮族镰刀战士

{barbarian_chosen_swordsmen_descr}
Elite\nImpetuous\nHardy\nExpert at Hiding in Forests\n\nSickle-men are infantry armed with short heavy bronze war sickles  well-suited to inflicting massive injuries on almost any opponent which they can come to grips with. Wearing bronze  breastplates, greaves and helms and carrying a large shield, they are able to trade blows with heavy infantry and even heavy  cavalry once it has become bogged down in a melee, though their lack of spears means they will suffer casualties when charged  by horse units.\n\nHistorically, sickle-men where used by several of the peoples around Anatolia and beyond. During the  battle of Salamis around 496 BC, the Cyprian prince Onesilos came face to face with the Persian commander Artybios whose  warhorse was trained to rear and kick. Onesilos seized a shield and deflected the animal's hooves, giving a comrade the  opportunity to sever its forelegs with a war sickle before killing the Persian general.

{barbarian_chosen_swordsmen_descr_short}
The war sickle is a brutal bladed chopping weapon capable of dealing massive injuries to most foes, including stationary cavalry. The excellent armour of these troops also allows them to survive longer than most at the heart of a battle.

{barbarian_archer_warband}		蛮族弓箭手

{barbarian_archer_warband_descr}
Expert at Hiding in Woods\nCan Sap\n\nThough these men are not the product of a cohesive military training program, the use of the bow as a hunting tool is widespread, so the pool of those skilled in its use is large. Life on the borders of powerful states such as Greece and Persia is tenuous, but such simple folk defend their meagre possessions so fiercely that attacking them is often more trouble than it's worth.\n\nSkills learned on the hunt translate well to the battlefield. These men are able to shoot with accuracy, frustrating and disrupting enemy formations. They can also easily hide in vegetation, ready to spring out in ambush. Poorly armed besides their bows and wearing no armour, they are next to useless should the enemy come to grips with them though.

{barbarian_archer_warband_descr_short}
The ability to strike an enemy from distance and disrupt his formations is the archer's forte, though he is poorly equipped to deal with hand to hand fighting.

Armed with javelins, they can stand off from enemies and pepper them with missiles but, thanks to their fine armour, shields, and swords, can also charge home and fight effectively in hand-to-hand combat. Like all general's guards, this unit is best committed to the fight at the point of crisis, when the general's inspirational leadership and the combat power of his men can tip the balance.

{barbarian_naked_fanatics_descr}
Impetuous\nHardy\nExpert at Hiding in Forests\n\nLife on the borders of powerful states such as Greece and Persia is tenuous,  but such simple folk defend their meagre possessions so fiercely that attacking them is often more trouble than it's worth.  Centuries spent in petty skirmishes or ambushing unwary travellers teaches a man the value of a trusty blade, and in such  areas men seldom travel far without a sword on their hip. In battle, these men form an indisciplined but enthusiastic rabble,  eager to charge their enemy regardless of orders and redden their blades! Since they are not professional troops, few wear  much by way of armour, relying instead on naked ferocity to break their foes quickly. If a disciplined enemy does manage to  hold in the face of their charge though, casualties amongst barbarian swordsmen will mount up swiftly.


{barbarian_naked_fanatics_descr_short}
Armed with swords, these warlike men are capable of inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy as a result of their enthusiatic charges - often without orders. Their lack of armour means that they will suffer in the face of determined resistance and at the hands of missile units.

Elite\nHardy\nInspires Friendly Units\n\nSurrounded by a hand-picked guard of spear-armed heavy horsemen, the general has sufficient protection to enable him to go to where the fighting is thickest to issue orders directly to his troops and shore up flagging morale with encouragements, mockery or threats! A well-judged charge by his guards can swing a battle in his favour and their equipment is of such quality that they can continue the fight hand to hand if necessary. The loss of the general is often enough to break the spirit of his army though, as well as being an unpleasant experience for the great man himself, so many generals choose to operate in a reserve role, waiting to spot an opportunity to enter the fray decisively.

Though determined spearmen will eventually stop them, they will pay a heavy price to do so with many survivors left to face life shorter by a foot or two - or even a whole leg! Far better to use missile and skirmish troops to shoot the horses out from under them before closing to exact vengeance on any unfortunate survivors.

Can Hide In Forests\nCan Form Wedge\n\nTypically recruited from the 'uncivilised' Thracian provinces, the Prodromoi are scouts and light cavalrymen. Wearing little or no armour aids their speed but does little for their chances against an enemy set to receive them. However, with so many heavy Macedonian units usually present on the battlefield, the Prodromoi are useful for harrying lightly-armed and mobile enemy troops. Historically, Alexander used repeated charges of his light cavalry to hamper the Persian cavalry, leaving his heavier horse with greater opportunity to find weaknesses in the enemy line. This may explain why the Macedonian king rarely seems to have had a full complement of light cavalry! The Prodromoi will make their greatest contribution to the butcher's bill by chasing down fleeing enemy troops.

Can Hide In Forests\nCan Form Cantabrian Circle\n\nHyrcanian cavalry are another excellent Persian cavalry unit. Equipped with throwing spears, they are able to harry heavier enemy units from a distance or deliver a lethal fusilade before charging home. Armoured in cuirasses and wielding excellent swords, they are capable of holding their own in many hand-to-hand engagements. Once their spears are all thrown, as medium cavalry they are at their best when charging the enemy flank or rear, or chasing down routers.

{barbarian_horse_archers}  蛮族弓骑兵

{barbarian_horse_archers_descr}
Horse archers are common amongst the barbarians whose lands border those of the Persians and Greeks. Their mobility in open terrain makes them ideally suited to the kind of hit-and-run warfare favoured by these fierce tribal peoples. On light nimble mounts they can dart in close to enemy formations to unleash a volley of arrows before retreating, or maintain a steady needling fire whilst whirling in a tight bewildering formation. Only steady troops under a strong and competent commander can endure this irritating behaviour for long before running for their lives or succumbing to the urge to rush at their tormentors. Those who choose the latter option will soon find that coming to grips with such mobile adversaries is no easy task, especially with an arrow lodged in the throat! One answer is to respond in kind, arrow for arrow. Since horse archers wear little or no armour in order to maximise their mobility, they are vulnerable to missiles, and any which do inadvertently stray too close to melee units will swiftly be cut to pieces, and no doubt danced upon subsequently!

{barbarian_horse_archers_descr_short}
On light nimble mounts, barbarian horse archers can dart in close to enemy formations to unleash a volley of arrows before retreating, or maintain a steady needling fire. They are very difficult to pin down, but their light armour makes them vulnerable in a melee.

{phrygian_mercenaries} 佛吉尼亚雇佣重装步兵

{phrygian_mercenaries_descr}
\n\nPhrygian mercenaries are dangerous heavy infantrymen, equipped with good armour, helms and shields and wielding sharp axes. Such heavy equipment means that they are ideally suited to cutting their way into enemy formations, and once they have done so their axes give them an advantage, particularly against spear-armed opponents.\n\nThe Phrygian tribes filled the vacuum left by the demise of the Hittite Empire in the 12th century BC and flourished under the legendary kings Midas (he of the golden touch) and Croesus (he of the riches). Such golden charms proved to be their undoing though as the Persian Emperor Cyrus conquered them in 546 BC, absorbing them into his empire. Perhaps in disgust at the subsequent stagnation of their culture, or perhaps to avoid the anonymity of service in regular Persian regiments, bands of like-minded Phrygians formed themselves into mercenary units which retained a strong separate cultural identity.

{tribal_slingers} 部落投石兵

{tribal_slingers_descr}
The sling is a simple easily-made weapon and is thus in widespread use amongst the less civilized barbarian peoples on the borders of Greece and Persia . With a strip of leather, a handful of stones and some practice a man can learn to drive predators away from the herd, bring down large prey animals or even another man. Armed with slings, even youths can play a part in battle when enemies threaten, and barbarian armies usually include swarms of such irregular troops. When time allows for preparation, slingers carry a bag of baked clay ammunition, or even moulded lead balls, but when this has been expended, all they need do is cast about on the ground for suitable pebbles. For this reason, slingers tend to maintain their barrage for far longer in battle than javelinmen or even archers. Though they rely on speed for the greater part of their personal defence, each man also carries a small target shield into battle along with a large knife to cut the throats of their stunned victims!

{tribal_slingers_descr_short}
Though their weapons are simple, these men are able to pelt an opponent with stones for long periods. They are not suited to close combat though and should be kept clear of such dangers.
