    The script writes that they are soldiers payed in land, just as Akrites where. Warriors granded with frontier lands, which they where supposed to protect.And the unit is visualy very very close to them. The only unit I realy miss from the Byzantines, is that of a Ygron Pyr. Naptha Throwers are good but Muslims can have them too. Greek Fire was Byzantines secret weapon.
