Fanaticos desnudos. Buena infantería, ligera...pero buena, mejor aún con setas. This is going to be great.

No squealing, and remember that it's all in your head!

Lanceros pesados romanos (triarii):

They also were throwers.

Note to myself: we need bots.

not to ruin anything but uh...
pretty much EVERYONE was a thrower in real life. People all carried a few javelins (or at least something to throw at the enemy) with them into battle. Why the hell wouldn't you? That could be a broken enemy shield, an injured or killed enemy. One less dude to fight and maybe even a broken phalanx.

I can't remember anything about infantry throwing anything except arrows and bolts at each other from my history classes. Can you specify when and where was this so common?

Ok, I see they were used in ancient Rome. Were they used sometime a bit closer to warband era, having the "everyone had something to throw" statement in mind.

A fighter is more dangerous, starved, sick, injured, sleep-deprived, drunk and naked than the normal person is well-fed, healthy, whole, rested, cold sober and armed to the teeth
