A polemarch (pl: polemarchoi, English: Warleader) was a high-ranking military title within various poleis across the ancient Greek world, serving under the strategos.
Physically imposing and heavily armed and armored, a polemarch was typically responsible for commanding a fort's garrison, or for leading a local military force. As such, their deaths would deal a sizeable blow to a given region's nation power.
