	Tradition	Description
	Kleruchoi	The Macedonians created scores of settlements in Bactria during Alexander's conquests, many of which prospered. The Kleruchoi, as they were known, provided a loyal manpower base for generations.
	Titans of Battle	The proximity to India, led to the adoption of elephants as an entire wing of the army. Riders would sit, mounted on a howdah, giving them a vantage point over the melee below.
	Embrace Perso-Indian Influence	N/A
	Footsloggers	While the majority of steppe warfare was mounted, scythian infantry are reported in numerous engagements in mid-antiquity. The Battle of Thatis saw the use of a large Siracian contingent of infantry, warring against the early Bosporan kingdom.
	Bactrian Horsemen	Both the Achaemenids and the Macedonians used Bactrian horsemen in their forces, due to their skill and availability. Like the western Scythians, their culture was heavily influenced by an equine nomadic lifestyle.
	Nomadic Lifestyle	The people of the steppe are often on the move. Their constant readiness is quite a boon when making war.
	Heartland	The heartland of Bactria itself was a lush, fertile plain, surrounded by mountains, steppe and desert, in all directions. The adaptability required to survive here, leads to our armies being better prepared than most.
	Reform of the Navy	The Achaemenid dynasty oversaw the implementation of a navy in Persia, drawing on the nearby Phoenician mariners to crew it. Such a legacy of naval tradition still imbues our people.
	Disillusioned Masses	The grand campaign of Alexander left behind thousands of mercenaries, willing to serve for their subsistence. Latterly, many of the surrounding tribes began to be assimilated, leading to plentiful and cheap mercenary contracts being available.
	Massed Assault	The sheer quantity of our troops can overwhelm any pitiful resistance. The cost in lives may be high, but the victory is made all the sweeter for it.
	Kardakes	Latterly, the Persians relied on heavily armored mercenary infantry known as the Kardakes. Present during Alexander's invasion, they were recruited from Persian lands, but employed as cheap mercenaries.
	The Immortals	A legendary unit of soldiers known as the Immortals, supposedly named due to the constant size of the unit at 10,000 strong, the Immortals utilized a diverse array of weaponry, and heavy armor, providing a backbone of heavy infantry around which the rest of the army was formed.
	Perfect Storm	The Greco-Bactrian Kingdom, which developed in the mid-3rd Century BC, was a cultural melting pot of styles, people, and most importantly, tactics. The fusion of these diverse ways of doing battle, made for a formidable fighting force.

	Tradition	Description
	Greco-Bactria	The Greek influences on Bactria took hold unusually swiftly. Architecture and fortifications sprang up in these styles, often regarded as superior to their less hellenized neighbors.
	Reactive Recruitment	The vast hosts of ancient Persian kings are mentioned in numerous sources. The act of levying local men of fighting age must have contributed significantly to the dazzling size of the warhosts raised.
	Steppe Mastery	The nomadic lifestyle instills our people with an excellent knowledge of how to act and survive in this harsh terrain.
	Royal Line	The Achaemenid line ran, unbroken from Cyrus to the fall of the Empire at the hands of Alexander the Great. Despite the recent subjujation, the glory days of the Persian empire remains strong and within living memory.
	Embrace Perso-Levantine Influence	N/A
	Legacy of Cyrus	The huge hosts of the Achaemenid empire instilled the Hellenic civilizations to the west with the utmost fear. The vast territory controlled by his empire, and the willingness of his people to serve, guaranteed a high throughput of soldiers.
	Born to Ride	The Sarmatian and Scythian tribes learn their horsemanship from a young age, developing an affinity for the saddle unlike any western culture. This knowledge can be put to good practical use when organizing our armies.
	Cataphracts	Many cultures with a history of equine mastery developed usage of heavy cavalry, or cataphracts, as a means of countering small arms. With both horse and rider clad in heavy scale or mail, nothing short of total rout would break the charge of a unit of cataphracts.
	Cavalry Skirmish	Cavalry make for excellent interceptors, cutting off routes of retreat, and interfering with supply lines. By ordering our riders to harass but never definitively engage, we deny our foes the convenience of a numerical advantage.
	Hit and Run	Contrary to the formative tactics associated with infantry, cavalry tactics tended to involve much more individual autonomy. None more so than horse archers, who would create a swirling cloud of arrows and horses, demoralizing enemy formations, and giving an advantage to the subsequent pitched engagement.
	Hippotoxotai	The nomadic tribes surrounding Bactria were often employed in the regional armies, excelling in mounted archery and horsemanship.
	The Parthian Shot	The signature tactic of horse archers was the Parthian Shot. Requiring utter mastery over their steeds, the riders would retreat from their foe, and by twisting their bodies in the saddle, would fire back at their target.
	To Blot Out the Sun	Praised for their prowess in archery by Herodotus, Achaemenid soldiers made use of the ubiquitous composite bow. In the famous Battle of Thermopylae, the sheer quantity of archers used by the native Persian troops were said to be able to blot out the very sun itself.
