Heh.. Who cares... Greek Cities gets owned by Macedonia straight away anyway... You'll never face more than one unit of them in battle since the AI only recruits levies and akontistai...

Unless EB has some mod that changes AI behaviour in what units it recruits?

Anyone here play Arthurian - Total War? One of the only RTW games that I have played that I have gone up against full armies of elites. This being due to the smaller unit size of their elite units.

All hoplites used the over hand spear attack.

To me the spartan looks like the vanilla spartan with the similar hat, but with the cloak on the back instead of a huge blanket wrapped around him. And his now visible armor looks like that baktrian unit on the loading screen.
