Because somebody had to say it: Cohorts. I don't think they can actually out-muscle everything, but I do think they make a more viable army all by themselves than some of the others mentioned here. They're numerous, have some armour-piercing missile capacity and are good on offence and defence. Unlike bodyguard cav they can defend and storm cities. And fighting battles with them would be a lot less frustrating and boring than stacks of elite phalanxes slowly poking the enemy to death. (Besides, in my game I nerfed phalanxes a bit.)

Why did you nerfed phalanxes? What changes did you make?

If you had not "nerfed phalanxes", and if you were not "bored by elite phalanxes slowly poking the enemy to death", can I safely asume you would spam elite phalanxes?

One last question, do you consider triarii an elite unit?
