Ok I am glad to report that we have a really decent amount of skilled players
Those of you who have been present during some of our sessions have seen that though we are relatively inexperienced, we actually have been pulling off some really nice teamplay.
This brings me to think that while we have a good amount of shields in our ranks, we need a supporting group to lay behind the shield wall. I would really like to see any players that are interested to consider a second position in the phalanx... The Peltast.
The Peltast is a skirmishing player capable of close quarters combat. Here are the specifications if any players considering joining us would like to be a peltast rather than a hoplite :
- Ability to use a 1 slot shield of relatively decent strength (elite cavalry shield would work)
- Ability to fight in hand to hand melee with fast 1 slots weapons (scottish dirk, falchions, maces, axes, shortened spear)
- Throwing skills, not high but enough to throw into approaching formations with some accuracy (around pt4 with 70-100 (maybe more) wpf in throwing
- High athletics build for fast movement behind the main line
- Lighter armour than the hoplites (recommended = byrnja, leather boots, leather glove, spiked cap)
Please if you are 50/50 on trying the league out then join us for one play session and then you can make an informed decision. This clan is a no commitment for fun faction and we are never gonna hold it against you if its not your thing.
So join with your hoplites and join with your peltasts! For the League ;)
P.s. there will hopefully be another play session at some point this week, when a lot of players are on so be ready to be asked if you want in if you are part of the steam group
