but you can get those better equipped phanlagitai in Ipsos and the city north of Halicarnassus (Tarsus?) with a lvl4 regional mic. the do a better job than the pantodapoi are less cost-intensive than the elite ones but I for my self find a silver'chevroned pandodapoi' better than those, at least in puncto valuability.

cheers and have fun with the Kianos and Herakleotes families - they rock the field.
Really? Thank you I did not know that. Well it's not so much for game play reasons. I tend to find the phalangitai way too overpowered to use plus I prefer something a bit more versatile given that I rely almost solely on infantry and can't use hammer and anvil tactics. It is the first campaign with Pontos I actually enjoy. Thankfully I only fight the AS and Makedonians and not all of my neighbours as many of my previous campaigns. I can't believe that Hayasdan are still allied to me and that I share a border with the Ptolemaioi and they have not attacked me for about 20 years.
