Rise of the Republic Insubres Unit Roster
Infantry Units
Insubres Batoroi (Celtic Melee Infantry) The local chieftain selects the strongest and fastest young men from the poorest freemen and arms them with throwing spears and shields. They carry clubs, axes, or swords as secondary weapons. Although they have little or no training, their simple armament is effective so long as they can flank or ambush an enemy force. |

Cavalry Units
Insubres Eporedoi (Celtic Light Cavalry) The farmlands of the Po Valley are rich in horses and cattle. As a result, even poor warriors can afford to equip themselves with fast horses, javelins, a spear or sword, minimal armor, and a cavalry shield. They are very efficient as a screening and scouting unit, but they will suffer in prolonged melee with unbroken infantry or heavier cavalry. |

Insubres Rigeporedoi (Celtic Heavy Cavalry) These nobles ride their own horses into battle and equip themselves with spears, light armor, and a stout cavalry shield. They are not afraid to close with other medium cavalry, enemy missiles, or infantry. Should they encounter steadfast spearmen or heavy cavalry, they will almost certainly need assistance from their own infantry. |
