"Mithridates raised Pontus from an insignificant nation into a major power that threatened the power of Rome. Many greeted him as a liberator from the Roman oppressor. He built an empire in Asia Minor and Greece as the champion of Hellenism whilst forming a solid trading alliance and dependent territories across the Black Sea and into the Mediterranean. Mithridates has the Empire Builder special rule. Before the game, roll a D6 and deduct 2 down to a minimum of 1. This indicates the number of enemy troop units affected (between 1 and 4). These units are considered to be Unreliable until such time as one of your own ‘core’ units has been destroyed (i.e. scoring units for withdrawal). The opposing play picks which of his own units are affected—these must be units that are not normally Unreliable."

"armyRules": [
"Phalanx. Standard phalangites most probably raised from the 6,000 Greek mercenaries hired early in Mithridates’ reign and from the independently-minded, wealthy trading city of Sinope. They wear linen or leather armour and carry a small shield. Armed with a long pike and wearing bronze and iron helmets. Some may have been wealthy enough to afford armour.",
"",
"Ex-Slave Phalanx Troops who had been set free from the Greek Asiatic cities and incorporated into the army. They were wiped out in the first battle they fought in. They would have been armed equipped as phalangites but probably wore a wide variety of clothes .",
"",
"Refugee Italian Infantry and Sertorian Legion: Standard legionary troops, who had fled from the Roman civil wars, well trained and equipped, armed with pilum and large shield.",
"",
"Galatians. Celtic tribes who lived in the desolate parts of Anatolia, part time subjects of Pontus. Armed with javelins, long swords and shields and with captured Greek weaponry. They were notoriously fickle.",
"",
"Theureophoroi:. Troops from the cities of Greece and Asia Minor , most likely levies, and mercenaries. They wore a bronze helmet also they carried a long spear and shield.",
"",
"Bastarnae. The Bastarnae were renowned to be ferocious fighters. They were an important tribal group possibly of mixed German/Celtic ancestry although this is uncertain. Later they fought with the Dacians. Unarmoured but carried a shield with some fighting with a weapon similar to the falx.",
"",
"Subject Archers: Provided by various subjects and Armenians! Primarily armed with the bow but could also have a sword and small shield. Armenian archers were supplied for the Pontic re-conquest.",
"",
"Mercenary Light Infantry and Thracians. Pontic mercenaries and other infantry of the peltast type including Thracians. They were lightly armoured and armed with a shield, javelins and sometimes long spear. They fought in a looser order than the phalanx.",
"",
"Skirmishers. Pontics, Armenians and mercenaries who fought from a distance and avoided close combat where possible. Likely to be armed with javelins.",
"",
"Pontic or Black Sea Nobles. Pontic nobility armed with long spears, swords, helmets and body armour. Sarmatian influence suggests some possibly had horse armour. May be upgraded to Guard to represent an elite bodyguard unit of nobles and retainers some of whom stayed loyal to Mithridates until the very end.",
"",
"Sarmatian Nobles. Armed with bows, kontos, swords, helmets and body armour .Many with horse armour of bronze, leather and horn. The bow fell out of use with the Black Sea Sarmatians , possibly through contact with the Greeks and the amount of horse armour may have declined too",
"",
"Armenian Cataphracts. We have represented these troops as more heavily armoured than the usual heavy cavalry riding horses which are also armoured. Armed with the long lance-like kontos wielded in two hands, they are slow and ponderous.",
"",
"Light Cavalry: Armed with javelins and shields. They fought in a looser order than heavy cavalry, their role to skirmish from a distance but to close with the enemy in the right circumstances.",
"",
"Horse Archers. These are mercenary Scythian horse archers raised from the steppes. They fought at long range with bows and were expert horsemen and archers.",
"",
"Skirmish Cavalry. Mounted skirmishers armed with javelins or bows and wearing no armour. They fight from a distance avoiding close combat where possible.",
"",
"Scythed chariots. A chariot festooned with scythes and blades whose sole purpose was to drive into the enemy ranks to disrupt their formation."
