Well, that's the fantasy uber-German phalanx for you. Also note the pitiful impact of the pila - a whole batch hit a German unit, a few of them jerk back and only about one of them is killed.
I agree with most of the comments in this thread. Timecommanders seems to be a lot better this time, and I also am pretty certain that human players are controlling the opponents.

In Nusbacher's defence the Roman infantry ought to have chainsawed through them: it's the game that's at fault. Pila are really ineffective unless they are given the armour piercing bonus, in which case they work just fine.
