A unit of phalanx pikemen has as many men as a unit of peasants, so they are very good for garrisoning cities that have problems with public order but also in danger of being attacked.

RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.

true true, but what's their relative cost/turn?
Re: Garrisons and public order... help?
When I played Parthia and conqured even some Carthaginians provinces I had all those rvolts quite often so I just garrisoned city with some good cav and some onagers(about 5 cav units and 2 units of onagers)-so in case of revolt I could re-capture city in the same turn it revolted and exterminate population so city stood calm for some turns.So this can be a prof part of a garrison other units may be cheap(peasants for example)just to mantain order.
And if city is rarely revolting better to garrison it with cheap peasants, and have one or two generals in nerby provinces - so it would be possible to hire some mercs in case of enemy's attack.

Don't wardogs (nice low upkeep) also have a good effect on public order?
