What about the Scandinavians? Surely a standing contract of a Brigade of
Scandinavian Merc's would fit the bill perfectly?

Have just begun massive reorganization of my Mini designs.  But my 
Heavy (Sz 4) Grav Tank is called the Belisarius, The Tank Destroyer 
varient is Narses, and the Tracked Thematic tank is the Justinian.  :)

Some of my 'Cattlelifter' (Irregular unpaid volunteers) designs include 
the Hyperkerastai and the Prokousotores (sp on the last).  As are the 
formations they equip.

Cataphracts will probably show up as unit designations, indeed.

Right now I'm trying to decide on the Varangians.  My current 
translation is that the Nea Rhomaioi rent an entire Brigade of Marines 
from the NAC, a la the Sultan of Brunei and his SAS squadron.  Whatcha 
think?
