It might be a bit too early for this but I'm curious about the topic.

During EB1 development several discussions arose about how the iphicrateans should be represented in the game, whether using the phalanx setting, shield wall or some other setting.

In the end, in EB 1.1 they act like heavy spearmen but as I understand it's not exactly an ideal solution and it affected similar units across the game.

Has there been any discussion about this in EB2 development?

I think that a edited pike formation(like the phalangites) or just shieldwall would be best.

Any words from the team? Or is it too early?

I suspected so, thanks.
