I changed every pike unit in EDB to a depth of 8 men. So both my and the enemy's pikes are 8 men deep. The typical Ptolemaic makeup is some 3 Klerouchoi, 2 Machimoi, 2 Klerouchon Agema, 4 - 8 Arabian light infantry, two Generals, another unit of cavalry like Prodromoi, one unit of Arabian slingers and the rest is random Machimoi / Thureophoroi / Thorakitai.
