Illyrian Nobles
Illyrian Nobles were well-armed and armoured warriors, often featuring the full panoply of bronze breastplates, greaves, and helmets. Illyrian armies fielded few cavalry and were masters of raids, ambuscades, and skirmishing. They used spears, javelins, and the Illyrian sica, a distinctive curved sword. Nobles displayed wealth with more body armour and sometimes imported or looted Greek weapons and armour, serving as elite shock troops or heavily armed skirmishers, in contrast with the more lightly equipped common infantry.
