    Yes. Ptolemaioi elites are quite difficult to retrain farther away from home. In any case, Klerouchoi Phalangitai should be the bulk of Ptolemaioi armies since they are only slightly inferior to Pezhetairoi and widely available. It is true though that Seleukids have the comparatively better units. Especially in archery and elephants Seleukids kick Ptolemaioi butt.
