As per this thread (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?666418-light_spear-vs-spear-still-some-changes-needed), an update was missed for 2.01 in the export_descr_unit.txt for secondary spear-wielding infantry units. They were left with the spear attribute, which gives them a penalty against other infantry, causes them to lose cohesion easily, and I think makes them much less effective due to the animation they get (I could be wrong on the last).
This is a simple submod; I've removed the spear and spear_bonus_x attributes and given all the units concerned the light_spear attribute instead. This makes them consistent with primary spear-wielding units, who all have light_spear already.
Affected units:
Uisusparos Kingetoi
Mercenary Uisusparos Kingetoi
Berukomtouga Selgoi
Gaisatoi
Ambactoi
Toutanakoi
Uassedoi
Dugunthiz Early
Dugunthiz Late
Gaizafulkan Frijato Early
Gaizafulkan Frijato Late
Jugunthiz
Toutaginoi Bodyguard
Kareus Late
Toutaginoi Early
Toutaginoi Late
Gestikapoinann
Retukenoi
Celtiberian Gaesamica
Principes Camillan
Principes Polybian
Hastati Sabelli
Hanatim Libim
Garamantes Infantry
Sabaean Elite Urban Infantry
Khamis
Thureophoroi
Misthophoroi Thureophoroi
Ioudaioi Taxeis
Illyrioi Hoplitai
Gund i Palta
Nizagan Eranshahr
Katpatuka Astibara
