II/17 — LYSIMACHID 320 BC

II/17 LYSIMACHID 320 BC - 281 BC

Lysimachos became governor of Thrace when Alexander died and later seized Macedon and western Asia Minor. The 3Kn could be Macedonian or Thracian nobility and the light horse were javelin-armed Thracians and Paionians. In addition to his phalangites, he had Greek mercenary and coastal city hoplites and many Thracian peltasts. This is the ideal army for a paranoid who thinks his troops hate him, since Lysimachos, although able and respected by all his equals (except Demetrios who hated him) worked very hard at being unpopular.
