Ah, thank you very much Fondor. so i´ll then change the local government in Aventicos, good to know.
after all, the Helvetii Phalanx seems to be the best defensive unit available in Europe, even better than the Speutogardoz or Alpine Phalanx. i had multiple bridge battles where i defended the bridge against massive Aedui armies attacking me and so far the two initial Helvetii Phalanx units i recruited at the start stood their ground every time, letting nothing past that bridge and allthough i am now down to one unit with 60 soldiers, this unit has 2 silver chevrons and is a true wall against which wave after wave of enemy units clash, almost able to hold that passage alone against a whole army!
i definitely need them for regular recruiting, it´s a bit tedious to always bring up fresh Speutogardoz from my home provinces across the alps to northern italy.
