    krypteia's were the spartan deathsquad. not neccisarily skirmishers.

    i just made a cool unit. i was so annoyed by the eggy archers (they had 10 in every army) that i changed them. now the act like legionares, but instead of pilums they do it with bows.

    We do not sow.

    it's intimidation.. psychological warfare, if you will. basically they are saying, "we're such badasses, that we'll give you our weapons, and still kill you!"
    now i'm here, and history is vindicated.

    they don't throw bows, wat ta fak (please don't warn me for this).

    they fire the arrows with the bows (you guys still following me) and then charge the enemy. hey that's smart. now i won't be showered by 10 eggy elite archers for 400 volleys long but for just 40.

    We do not sow.

    Yeah, the number of arrows just has to be reduced

    Why are the archers 'eggy'?

    Is this some form of Classical warfare that passed me by or what?

    Idomeneas, I was under the impression that Macedoians had a lot of Illyrian and Thracian blood as well as Dorian...
