Notes
The Ligurians were a warlike people that fought fiercely but unsuccesfully against the Roman conquest of Italy. They were also used as mercenary infantry by the Carthaginians. Their typical weapons were axes and a couple of javelins, together with swords, spears, helmets and shields of Celtic influence.
Diodorus Siculus describes this people "Due to ongoing labour and food scarcity, their bodies appear fit and strong. Women are as strong and vigorous as men, who are themselves like beasts. They are courageous and noble not only while fighting, but also in those circumstances of life where some sort of danger is involved."
Note that this army will automatically have L:7 due to receiving an extra light division per the rule on Control Ratings on page 34 of the Rules for purchasing all light units.Ordo Link: There is no dedicated thread to the Ligurian list. Some information may be found by searching the New Army Submissions Thread, or using the Search function on the main Ordo page.
