Could you please define the first thing you said? As for their effectiveness, the shieldwall gives them bonuses in defense. Much more reliable than guard mode and more correct than the short_pike attribute, which makes units take weird angles with their spears, plus the back rows hold them in a 45 degree angle. And let us not forget the fact that the short_pike attribute makes units stick together that much, that it becomes completely unhistorical.
