Much depends upon what kind of battle map you get. I'm not very impressed with RTW's cookie-cutter maps....most are the same...just shift a few hills around and place some ruin in the middle of the map, and there you are.

But occasionally, one runs across a well designed map that allows for setting traps and maneuver. On these you can have some fun...getting hoplites to expose their flanks is easy if you have some forest to hide in. Just show them a front to move towards, and keep your reserve to the flanks with fire-at-will off. Draw them forwards by constantly moving your frontal skirmishers back, and hit them when their flanks and rear are exposed.
