The soldiers would lock their shields together, and the first few ranks would project their spears out over the first rank of shields. The phalanx therefore presented a shield wall and a mass of spear points to the enemy, making frontal assaults against it very difficult. It also allowed a higher proportion of the soldiers to be actively engaged in combat at a given time (rather than just those in the front rank).[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The phalanx usually advanced at a walking pace, although it is possible that they picked up speed during the last several yards. One of the main reasons for this slow approach was to maintain formation. The formation would be rendered useless if the phalanx was lost as the unit approached the enemy and could even become detrimental to the advancing unit, resulting in a weaker formation that was easier for an enemy force to break through. Herodotus states of the Greeks at the Battle of Marathon, that "They were the first Greeks we know of to charge their enemy at a run". Historians believe that this innovation was to minimize their losses from Persian archery.', 'en_US'),

The commander concentrates the majority of their strength (elite units and/or a greater quantity of troops) on one flank while the remainder fixes the enemy line. This technique allows a commander with weaker or equal total forces to achieve a quick local superiority in numbers on one side and then snowball that advantage down the rest of the line.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]In the oblique order attack, the line is intentionally thinner on one side in order to concentrate troops on the other side. Then, when meeting the opposing heavy infantry, they would then create an angled (oblique) engagement with the enemy, refusing complete engagement on the weakened flank, but attacking in full on the stronger flank with a concentration of force. Once the strong flank had dominated its opposition, the commander would wheel the troops 90 degrees to roll up the enemy line.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The first recorded use of this sort of tactic was in 371 BCE at the Battle of Leuctra, in Greece, when the Thebans under Epaminondas defeated the Spartans by highly enforcing one flank to fifty rows deep, rather than spreading forces parsimoniously. Philip of Macedon learned Epaminondas'' technique while held prisoner at Thebes, and his descendants (including Alexander), used it in their campaigns.

As the stirrup had not been invented at the time of the Parthians, the rider relied solely on pressure from his legs to guide his horse.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]In addition to the Parthians, this tactic was used by most nomads of the Eurasian steppe, including the Scythians, Huns, Turks, Magyars, and Mongols. The technique was used to great effect in Parthia''s victory over the Rome in the Battle of Carrhae where 20,000 Romans were killed (and another 10,000 captured) compared to Parthia''s loss of only a few dozen horses.

Their ability to live off the land, and in extreme situations off their animals (mare''s milk especially), made their armies far less dependent on the traditional logistical apparatus of agrarian armies. In some cases, as during the invasion of Hungary in early 1241, they covered up to 100 miles (160 km) per day, which was unheard of by other armies of the time. The horse was viewed much like a cow in Mongolia; milked and slaughtered for meat as such. Since most of the Mongols'' mounts were mares, they were able to live off their horses'' milk or milk products as they moved through enemy territory.

('LOC_PEDIA_UNITPROMOTIONS_PAGE_BW_PROMOTION_ARCHER_BARBED_TRILOBATES_CHAPTER_HISTORY_PARA_1', 'In describing the Roman''s humiliating defeat at the Battle of Carrhae, Plutarch said:[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]"...being crowded into a narrow compass and falling one upon another, [the Romans] were shot, and died no easy nor even speedy death. For, in the agonies of convulsive pain, and writhing about the arrows, they would break them off in their wounds, and then in trying to pull out by force the barbed heads which had pierced their veins and sinews, they tore and disfigured themselves the more. Thus many died, and the survivors also were incapacitated for fighting. And when Publius urged them to charge the enemy''s mail clad horsemen, they showed him that their hands were riveted to their shields and their feet nailed through and through to the ground, so that they were helpless either for flight or for self defence."[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The Parthian''s fierce "barbed heads" were likely descendants of the Scythian arrowhead, also known as a Scythian point, that carries a fascinating history.  With a trilobate shape, Scythian points were designed like a rocket or bullet with three blades extending from the body. Some of the arrowheads had protruding barbs, while others lacked this painful extra. The trilobate was usually made of bronze, while the shaft used to deliver the arrowhead was made of reed or wood and was roughly 30 inches long. The design and craftsmanship employed was brilliant, for its aerodynamic body made it extremely practical to use against the finest and toughest of armor.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The Scythian point originated around the 7th century BCE, suggesting that Scythians developed the weapon in order to pierce Assyrian armor, as Scythians and Cimmerians were indeed at war with Assyria on and off during that time period. Now, this was not the only arrowhead style or material used by the Scythians, for some arrowheads were made of bone, stone, iron, or bronze. As for shape, some looked like small spearheads, while others were leaf-shaped, which may have been used for hunting. The discussed trilobite shape, however, was most likely used for combat purposes.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]Besides the lethal design of the Scythian trilobite point, another nasty feature was the poison. Not only were these ancient fighters experts at archery, but also in biological warfare. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on how you see it, the Scythians had a wide variety of deadly poisons to choose from. The not so friendly reptiles inhabiting the area included the steppe viper, Caucasus viper, European adder, and the long-nose/sand viper.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]Truly, the Scythians had a vast arsenal of snake venoms of all degrees at their disposal. The book titled, "On Marvelous Things Heard," by Pseudo-Aristotle, which was a work written by his followers, if not written in part by Aristotle himself, mentions the Scythian handling of snakes and how to extract their poison:[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]"They say that the Scythian poison, in which that people dips its arrows, is procured from the viper. The Scythians, it would appear, watch those that are just bringing forth young, and take them, and allow them to putrefy for some days."[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]After several days passed, the Scythian shaman would then take the venom and mix it with other ingredients. One of these concoctions required human blood:[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]"But when the whole mass appears to them to have become sufficiently rotten, they pour human blood into a little pot, and, after covering it with a lid, bury it in a dung-hill. And when this likewise has putrefied, they mix that which settles on the top, which is of a watery nature, with the corrupted blood of the viper, and thus make it a deadly poison."[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The Roman author Aelian also mentions this process, saying, "The Scythians are even said to mix serum from the human body with the poison that they smear upon their arrows." Both accounts show that the Scythians were able to excite the blood in order to separate it from the yellow watery plasma. Once the mixture of blood and dung had putrefied, the shaman would take the serum and excrement and mix it in with the next ingredient, venom, along with the decomposed viper. Once the process was complete, the Scythians would place their arrowheads into this deadly mixture ready for use.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The historian Strabo mentions a second use of this deadly poison:[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]"The Soanes use poison of an extraordinary kind for the points of their weapons; even the odor of this poison is a cause of suffering to those who are wounded by arrows thus prepared."[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]So the arrowhead was poisonous, but why stop there? Sometimes they ensured that the barbs on the arrowhead were also coated with the deadly concoction. The Roman poet Ovid, who was exiled to the Black Sea, got a good look at these poisonous plus arrows and reported them as "native arrow-points have their steel barbs smeared with poison, carry a double hazard of death." He also described the poisonous ingredient as "yellow with vipers gall."[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]To get a better understanding of this "double death," Renate Rolle elaborates further on the barbed arrowheads: "These arrowheads, fitted with hooks and soaked in poison, were particularly feared, since they were very difficult to remove from the wound and caused the victim great pain during the process." A very grim picture, without question. Too be struck by an arrowhead with barbs or hooks, poisoned with putrefied remains, would indeed be horrific.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]With all these different poisons used by the Scythians, they had to know how to tell what was what in their gorytus, or case for holding the bow and quiver of arrows. The length of the gorytas was relatively shorter than the bow itself, leaving the weapon partially exposed. It also had a metal covering for the arrows, most likely to protect the archer from scraping his skin across the poisonous arrowheads.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]The Scythians would paint their arrow shafts in the color of red or black, while others had zigzag and diamond patters decorating them. Not so coincidently, these various patterns painted upon the arrow shafts were the same patterns found upon the various vipers used by the Scythians as their agents of death. Vipers with a zigzag or diamond pattern upon their backs were the most poisonous of all.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]Clearly, the painted design was a way for the archer to tell which poison he was using. Additionally, the decorated arrow shafts, when fired at the enemy, likely had a psychological effect, for they must have looked like snakes flying through the air, while the barbs protruding from the point appeared like fangs to the enemy.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]So now that the Scythians had their gorytus, stacked with a fierce weapon and deadly arrows, it was just a matter of choosing which chemical killer to use on the enemy.[NEWLINE][NEWLINE]"Pick Your Poison" by Cam Rea https://classicalwisdom.com/politics/enemies/pick-your-poison/', 'en_US'),
