Reforms: Unlocked by Military innovations have arrived!, Massalia Thorakitai Reform
Having drawn inspiration from the foreign lands their city was built in, the Massaliote Thorakitai look similar to the Gallic warriors they are constantly facing in battle. As a heavy infantry unit that is both strong and flexible, it can either hold firm against numerous waves of warriors or attack the flanks of the enemy lines. Apart from their mail and thureos shield, the Thorakitai still retain iconic elements of a Hoplite: wearing a Chalcidian type helmet, a dory (a 2-3m/ 6-9 ft spear) in their hand and a xiphos on their hip, they are ready to strike at any foe who gets too close.
