Helot Auxilary are a silver era buckler shield melee infantry unit.
In-Game Description[ | ]
The citizen-warriors of Sparta bore immense pride, dedicating themselves solely to the glorious art of war. Within Sparta's ranks, the responsibilities of supply and transport fell to their subjugated helots -- humble servants denied the honor of glorious death, existing only as footnotes to the epic tales of heroes. These helots bore the warriors' weapons and provisions, built fortifications and encampments upon the battlefield, their lives an endless toil relieved only by death itself. Yet, in the fateful battle of Thermopylae, history remembers not only the three hundred valiant Spartans, but also the helots who perished alongside them. None wavered, none survived. Before the divide of life and death, glory and status lost their meaning-for even Leonidas the Great required the steady hands of a helot to fasten the clasps of his armor.
