==Mounted Bowman== *Cost: 15 GP per week *Mounted Bowmen, Western Provinces: AC 5 (Scale Armor) plus shortbow, quiver, and spatha. These troops are veterans of the legions, generally men of Imperial or local barbarian extraction, who have been trained to fight in a style imitating the horse-archers of the east. They are accustomed to using riding horses and they use local bows; these weapons are not as powerful as the bows of the east, but are better suited for the often damp weather of the western provinces. These men have scale armor and spathae, but are not used to close-quarters combat. During their terms of service they were generally used for skirmishing purposes or deployed in an ancillary fashion along the flanks of the army. They prefer to stay mobile and fire arrows at their enemies rather than close and fight with their spathae. All have Morale 8; 75% fight as veterans and 25% fight as Normal Men with 1d3+1 hp. This is determined randomly on a per-man basis.
