Numidian Allies
The Numidian tribes of North West Africa provided mercenary troops to both Rome and Carthage throughout the Punic Wars. After Rome emerged victorious some Numidians were trained as auxiliary troops and as imitation legionaries. Probably the most famous “export” of the Numidians was their light cavalry, who had a reputation for harrassing the enemy with javelins but refusing (very sensibly) to be caught in hand-to-hand fighting.

Arab Allies
The Arabs include nomadic tribes and cultures centered on desert trading cities such as Hatra and Edessa. The Nabatean Arabs of Petra made use of cavalry earlier than others, but by this period all Arab peoples would have access to horses.

Greek Allies
The Greeks of this period were a far cry from the hoplites of antiquity. Most Greek mecenaries were light troops, the phalanx having proved to be obsolete having been defeated repeatedly by more flexible Roman formations. The successor state of Bythinia had, by this time, been defeated.

Spanish Allies
The “Spanish” were a collection of celtic tribes producing many fierce warriors. None more so than the Celtiberians. By the time of Caesar, many of the tribes had been conquered and their warriors fought for, rather than against Rome
0-1 Spanish Cavalry

Equipment: Javelins and buckler
Special Rules: Skirmishers, warband. May only be selected as part of an Allied contingent
Gallic Allies
The Gauls are possibly the best-known of the barbarian peoples. They occupied most of modern-day France, but were a coalition of related tribes rather than a nation. Occasionally they could be brought together to form a large army, as under Vercingetorix, but this was the exception rather than the rule. After Vercingetorix’s defeat at Alesia the Gauls were conquered by Caesar’s legions and Gallic troops were incorporated into his army.

Special Rules: Skirmishers, Warband. May only be selected as part of an Allied contingent
German Allies
The Germans consisted of a great number of independent tribes. By no means all were allied to the Romans, and famously in 9AD German treachery led to the destruction of several Roman legions in the Teutoberger Wald. The Germans were never fully conquered (unlike the Gauls). However Roman armies did make use of German allies, later training and equipping them in the Roman style.

Galatian Allies
The Galatians were a celtic tribe who migrated East, invaded Greece and finally settled in central Asia Minor. By this period in history their fortunes were on the wane. Two imitation legions were raised in the 1st Century BC and fought with the Romans, later being formed into the Legio XXII Deiotariana when Galatia became a Roman province in 25 BC.

The Armenians spent most of their history playing politics with their neighbours rather than engaging in warfare, however they did take to the field on occasions

Special Rules: Light Cavalry. Feigned flight: If the unit chooses to fire and flee it may rally immediately at the end of the flight and may reform facing in any direction. If the enemy contact them they are not automatically destroyed and may fight in the close combat phase. Their opponents still count as charging. May only be selected as part of an Allied contingent.
Special Rules
Unreliable allies
Allied contingents, but not native auxiliaries, may be unreliable. The first time any unit in an allied contingent attempts to move, charge, react to charge or shoot the player must roll a d6. On a roll of 1 units in the allied contingent may not move, charge or shoot, and will flee if being charged. On a roll of 2-6 the units will act as the player wishes. Once an allied contingent has successfully passed an unreliability roll it no longer needs to take the test. Units subject to warband psychology must still pass the unreliability test to be able to perform any action. Unreliability affects all units of an allied contingent, including those who are eligib
