Well, as I'd mentionned before, there is (albeit scant) evidence that helots served verily in the Spartan phalanx as early as the Battle of Platea.

The reason I mention helots is that you could have a helot archer or hoplite telling the first half of your AAR, with his fully-Spartan son telling the latter half. Just a thought though.
