ya, buts its always fun to go all out and to try and make a tactical win using, well, superior tactics than the enemy
When playing as the brutii it's simple to overcome a phalanx, Just wait til it gets close use fire at will on it from the side then run around the back during the confusing and attack. The only phalanx that it's not so good on is Spartans as they are tough but not that tough.
The essential general tips:
Attack. Flank. This seems to work for me, with slight variations, for every army that is not mostly horse archers. Mobility is OP :D.
Using skirmishers well can be key to fighting phalangites (particularly the Germans early on) with Barbarian factions.
