Boukellarioi

[aphilla]

A question, not a suggestion.

In the notes it says that the boukellarioi seem to have been equipped either with bows or spears depending on where they were recruited.  I don't know whether this is an old note that corresponded to an old list and is hence obsolete.  But should it be accompanied in the list with another category of boukellarioi who is superior drilled close but devastating chargers, or charging lancers, with no bow?

[nikgaukroger]

Old note I think. There was much discussion about the boukellarioi when the lists were updated and it is very possible that the list notes got left behind a bit - I'm sure there are others out there with "legacy" notes

And I will come back to that subject a bit latter ...promised

I think the early byzantine list should be revised so beware
