Class: light · Category: cavalry · Men per unit: 32
The Numidian Cavalry were lightly armed and unprepossessing in appearance. They wore no armour, but only light, baggy, sleeveless tunics of undyed wool. They carried small, light, boss-less and rimless leather shields, and rode into battle with a bundle of javelins with iron heads, which enabled them to skirmish like mounted peltasts.
