Cohort
A cohort was a standard tactical military unit of a Tymerian legion, though the standard changed with time and situation, and was composed of between 360-800 soldiers. A cohort is considered to be the equivalent of a Mekradian military battalion. The cohort replaced the maniple following the reforms attributed to Victarion Percival Balderic Goldfyre in 8 AC. Shortly after the military reforms of Zragar Maccal , each legion formed 10 cohorts. The cohorts were named "first cohort", "second cohort" etc. The first cohort gathered the most experienced legionaries, while the legionaries in the tenth cohort were the least experienced. 10 cohorts (about 5000 men total) made up a Tymerian legion.
