+     * '''Basic:''' Tunic, bow, quiver, sandals – poor and young. And no greaves.
+     * '''Advanced:''' Advanced: Tunic, bow, quiver, Petasos hat or a similar looking broad-brimmed hat, sandals – things are getting better, more moolah!
+     * '''Elite:''' Elite: Tunic, bow, quiver, sandals, Pilos helmet, light linen cuirass – about as good as it gets for archers. – Not too fancy, he’s WAY down there on the list in terms of money. His cuirass is a quilted linen example, NOT the type worn by hoplites. Pretty much he’d be the Advanced but with a quilted linen cuirass

    * '''Function: '''The common tactics of the time were to ram one's opponent. Most ships at the time were equipped with a large battering ram at the bow which was used to crush the sides of an opponent. Another common tactic was to brush along the sides of the opponent's ship and snap all of the oars off. Once the ship was disabled and floundering in the waves, then the other ship could move in and finish its opponent. The Greeks employed the ramming tactics to excellent effect throughout out their naval battles. Speed was the key element for ramming and that required maneuverability and lightly armoured ships.
