Description Barbarian mercenary auxiliary designs. Female and male barbarians. In effort to supplement her forces, her majesty is by no means ashamed to hire mercenaries from Gannic tribes allied to her hegemony. Though these auxiliaries' equipment and martial training is generally inferior to that of Tollesian soldiers, the Gan are renown for their natural ferocity and prowess and are far more at home in the hills and woodlands. Not as organized as Tollesian armies, Gannic war bands tend to be fairly hodgepodge, consisting of seemingly random groupings of archers, skirmishers, spear or sword infantry, and/or light cavalry centered around a war chief and his warrior-elite. Most warriors go unarmored, with bronze or brigandine armor worn mainly by Gannic nobility who can afford the expense.
