The Tagma of Nicea

 

 History of the Tagma

 The Tagma is a recently formed levy by Despot Constantine Palaiologos. In times of war the Tagma of Nicea has one job; to protect Metz the capital of Lorraine. The location of Nicea makes the protection of Metz almost natural, as it's very close to the capital. The levy is lightly equiped compared to other Orenian levies which makes the soldiers to move faster than any other unit.

Officers:

 

Strategos (Marshal) - the head of the Tagma(army) appointed by the Despot, tasked with managing the Tagma, and leading it into battle. He is often revered by his men, who follow his command faithfully.

Belisarios would stand before the crowd of peasants in Nicea, mounted on his steed and accompanied by his personal bodyguards. He smirks at the cheering crowd as he waved his hand. As he sent his hand down, the crowd fell silent and Belisarios began to speak. 

 

"Greetings, good people of Nicea! It is my honor to be amongst you today! Today is a day of fortune for our people - for I am glad to announce that the Tagma of Nicea has been reformed by our great Despot. Through his most divine judgment, our wise Despot decided to appoint me, Belisarios of Nicea to lead this Tagma into glory and prestige! And today, I call you - the people of Nicea, to answer the call of the Despotate, and join this great Tagma, for together we shall restore the fortune and glory of our mighty civilization!" 

 

The cheerings of the crowd ever grew as Belisarios ceased to speak. Instead, Belisarios raised his hand again to wave at the crowd of peasants as a line began to form on the recruitment desk of the Tagma.
