Footsore Mortal Gods Persian Sparbara

The sparabara, meaning 'shield bearers' in Old Persian, were the front line infantry of the Persian Empire. They were usually the first to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. Not much is known about them today, however, it is believed that they were the backbone of the Persian army who formed a shield wall and used their two-metre-long spears to protect more vulnerable troops such as archers from the enemy whilst the archers sent up a hail of arrows.

In game terms, it is used to refer to the combination of these shield-bearers and the archers that were protected by them.
