Quality and combat stats of these units should be sufficiently low to simulate their poor training. In addition to spearmen it would be good to have some archers or skirmishers, because not everyone would be able to afford a spear, and young boys and old men might prefer the less strenous exercise of the bow.
in Germania everybody was actually armed and ready - except for the slaves everyone reaching "manhood" was given a spear and shield by his clan
