Good points; I should've known ekdromoi get destroyed by flanking HA's
and since this is the field army, not garrison, of a wealthy polis:
2 family members, also serving as your meh-grade heavy cavalry
1 Hippeis
2 scythian horse archers
1 scythian riders
4 foot archers (mix of locals and hellenes, no elites)
1 Bosphoran heavy archers (how could I forget?)
3 hoplitai (classic)
Note that prodromoi are not available in the Crimea (according to the recruitment viewer). I've also ditched the slingers for the bosphoran heavy archers, can't believe I missed them!
As for heavy cavalry, one might replace a FM with some variety of Hetairoi, but having more than 2 heavy cavalry units, even in the main stack, seems a bit extravagant. Until you're very, very rich.
