Historically, Danubian peoples frequently used plundering invasions into Hellenic territories to win glory and lots of loot. The Getai unit list is well-suited to using ambush and hit-and-run tactics on the battlefield when confronted with a larger and better-equipped Hellenic force. Make a run down into Hellas, plunder a few cities, then come back home. You'll weaken the Maks, get some experience outwitting and outfighting the Hellenic AI, and come home with a huge bankroll.

You've got a lot of units that are good flankers and ambushers, and very few good line units...use that to your advantage on the battlefield.
