Fast moving + not 'well armored' or skirmish for infantry and skirmish + not 'well armored' for cav.

Then the Thracian Peltasts count as normal infantry too. I have to check the axemen and native spearmen, but if I'm right they don't have the "Fast movin'" "trait". Thuerophoroi is infantry too. Hmm...hmmm...hmmm.

Edit: Axemen from Mikra Asia don't have the trait, but the native spearmen like Pantodapoi have it. Damn.

I'm confused about Thrakians, what do they count?

[antisocialmunky]

Anything with skirimish and two legs is counted in the 'Light' category. The designation does remove most of the assault infantry types from the mix so its pretty much missile and levy spam(thought the Gauls/Iberians can fill it with decent infnatry).

Also, I like the idea for bumping up the barbarian Light limit to 8 so they can mass more of their crap missiles if they want to against other missile spammers(thought a massive charge probably works a little better than standing there trading missiles).

BTW- I'm Getai this time around :-D

[Apázlinemjó]

I see, I hope none will go spam 7-8 Cretan Archers or Thrakian Peltasts, because they are all considered light.

I don't think anyone can get 8 Cretans since no faction gets them that have 6+. However, Syrians, Bosphorans, and Persian HEavies are all up for grabs.

Western Mediterranian/Continental and N. European Factions:
-Rome, Arche Seleukia, KH, Maks, Ptoly, Carthago, Luso, Gauls, Casse, Sweboz, Getai
4 Medium or Heavy Cavalry MAX with up to 2 Heavy Cavalry MAX.
4 MIN and 6 MAX Lights
12 MAX Infantry, 8 Phalanx MAX
6 Mercenary/Allied MAX

So there is a minimum number of Light we need to have? Im just trying to clarify things, but lights are archers/skirmishers right?

[tsidneku]

To make sure, mercenary/allied units are also subject to the other limitations right?
