Hoplitai and 0.2 density

[Zett]

Could you please post some screenshots of some of the units, where they stand in formation and are not moving? That would be nice

Battle with lower density (look first post for density values)

You will notice, that the difference while standing and being steady is quiet small, but the difference while fighting is big. Without lower density the unit "explode" when ordered to attack (except when guardmode is on, first picture at "Fighting units" with standard density). You will also notice, that the Syrakosioi Hoplitai look (with and without lower density) while standing the same, that means that there must be another value (is this the right english word?) in the files to define the dense of a formation. I noticed this phenomenon also by the Ekdromoi, you can give them a lower density in the EDU files, but they still have their lose formation (pherhaps some experienced modder could tell me which other values define the foramtion density of a unit).

And about the balance...

I used in both battles the same tactic (waiting, let them come, guardmode on, after 30 sec. after the fight started turn guardmode off, no outflanking). In the battle with standard density the enemy general died early, but the loses I suffered were still bigger then in the battle with lower density. If the enemy general had not died, I would have lost the battle, while there was no problem in the battle with lower density.
