I got curious and checked the RW. Looks like you can actually get the Hellenic Medium Phalanx along the entire northwestern African coast, and at just a level 3 Native barracks at that.
A strong phalanx core with the excellent Numidian support units could make for a very interesting army.
Just picture this:
1 FM
5 Medium Phalanx
3 Numidian Skirmishers
3 Numidian Cavalry
2 Numidian Nobles
3 Numidian Slingers
3 Numidian Archers
Mix in some African Elephants, Maure and Garamantine Infantry and a Libyan general or two, and you´ve a incredible army right there.
*drools*
If you don´t do this, I might have to.
