Qarthadast early Survival guide

[Cambyses]

Iberians not as strong in hand to hand? A fair few of them have AP weapons with high lethality, that's not to be sneezed at. Balearic Light Infantry are badasses for how much they cost, especially because of their morale.

I was comparing the skirmishers only Iberian skirmishers are armed with a knife vs the Numidian spear if I recall correctly.

Otherwise, yes, the Iberians have great melee infantry. Scutari especially could stand in the main battle line of any faction and give a good account of themselves.

[QuintusSertorius]

I thought Numidian skirmishers backup was a knife as well?

no, they use a spear (not very effective though)
