If you are referring to the mass-murdering psychopath, his name was Himmler, not Himmel.

Back to topic guys!!!
And about the Phalanx, are best used to pin enemy line, while other troops flank and cause the much required killings to made the Phalanx effective, they are unbeatable frontline troops (except against another phalanx)

[artavazd]

to fight phalanx, click behind their line and have your unit run through them. Once the unit is passed the pikes click on the phalanx unit to have your unit attack them. This technique works wonders. If you want to realy be devastating, have a nother unit attack the phalanx from behind. Their numbers will drop like flies.
