Hail Caesar Arthurian Unarmoured Saxon Infantry A

During the Arthurian times, which roughly correspond to the late 5th and early 6th centuries, Saxon light infantry played a significant role in the military tactics of the period. These troops were typically composed of free men known as ceorls, who were called upon to defend their communities in times of conflict.

Saxon light infantry were lightly armored, often wearing simple tunics and carrying basic protective gear like leather helmets and small shields. Their primary weapons included spears, javelins, and short swords, which allowed them to be quick and agile on the battlefield. They excelled in skirmishing, hit-and-run tactics, and providing support to heavier infantry units.

Their mobility and flexibility made them effective in a variety of combat scenarios, from open-field battles to raids and ambushes. Saxon light infantry were crucial in the defense against various threats, including rival tribes and invading forces, contributing to the overall military strategy of Saxon chieftains during the turbulent Arthurian period.

With a mixture of short swords, spears and shields, these unarmoured infantry fair the best when assaulting a flank.
