Javelin throwing units

[Blitz]

Both the "Rome" races have very good javelin heavy infantry. The problem with most javlineers is that they are almost exclusively light infantry-based. The principe has 12 protection and 16 defense as well as a tower shield and shortsword. They are ideal for use against both neutrals and the AI, which masses light infantry and archers. Principes are virtually invulnerable to archers, and the javelin/shortsword combination makes short work of light troops. True to their history, these legionaires are best used in one large mass, as the rearward units can fire over the top of their comrades in front, into the mass of enemy. A large mass of principes in the middle with summons on the sides to protect the commanders is a nearly-unbeatable combination against the AI.
