Illyrian Skirmisher Auxilia are aggressive barbarian skirmishers accustomed to operating in rough terrain who are liable to attack without orders. They come from the tribes in the western Balkans. These troops are unruly skirmishers equipped with javelins and shields, as well as short swords for close combat.

The Illyrian tribes are experienced land and sea raiders, and their chief joy is the prospect of plunder! One of the more famed Illyrian kings, Bardylis, built his success and reputation on the basis of his equitable distribution of the spoils after each successful battle. This expectation of loot contributes to their occasional over-enthusiasm to get into a fight.

These troops are effective ambushers, and they have good prospects of defeating most other skirmishers in combat.
