Most basic unit of all. However, it's useful if you want to "transfer population" from one settlement to another (Show me How). Barbarian peasants are more hardy, though.

The main "filling" of the barbarian armies. It's nice to massacre them with legions or your Legionary cavalry, but when you're playing as them, you got to bear in mind - they aren't the best unit around.

These are better than the Woad Warriors. I suggest you replace the former with these, unless you are a bit of a naked fanatic yourself.

Can cause trouble, definitely. Something to avoid and exterminate. Don't tire your troops to pursue them if there's anything more serious (like infantry or cavalry) to pursue.

Think of a roman-era Churchill tank. Would be about the same thing. A thing to be feared and crushed with good infantry and archers.
