History[]
Toxotes were Greek archers who carried a Short Bow, for shooting target a far, and a sword and shield, for personal protection.For armor they wore cloth or leather armor to protect their body. The Cretan archers, a variation, used long bows instead of short bows to increase distance but required more training to master.
Tips[]
- Along with Hypaspists can become a very powerful army
- In the Golden Age many players will still choose to have large balls of Toxotes because of their higher speed and lower cost, while still having comparable damage to Gastraphetes.
