Victrix Thureophoroi
Victrix Thureophoroi
A high-quality plastic set depicting Thureophoroi, versatile Hellenistic skirmishers and light infantry fielded across the Greek and successor kingdoms from the 3rd to 1st centuries BCE.
Product Info
This Victrix set represents Thureophoroi, a flexible infantry type that bridged the gap between light peltasts and heavier phalangites. Armed with thrusting spears, javelins, and the oval thyreos shield, these troops were deployed for screening, flanking, and rapid battlefield manoeuvres.
About the Unit
Thureophoroi emerged as Hellenistic warfare evolved and armies required soldiers who could move quickly while still holding a formation. Their combination of mobility, respectable armour, and versatile weapons made them ideal for supporting cavalry, occupying rough terrain, or engaging enemy skirmishers. They served under the Seleucids, Ptolemies, Antigonids, and many Greek city-states, becoming a defining troop type of the late Classical and early Hellenistic world.
About the Model
Victrix provides crisp sculpting, historically accurate equipment, and multiple pose options to build dynamic units. Ideal for ancient wargames such as Clash of Spears, Hail Caesar, and other 28mm historical systems. Miniatures come unpainted and require assembly.
