    Yeah, Basilikon Agema's shorter spears put them at a huge nerf versus other elite phalanxes. I'm sure changes will come once the team goes through the motions of including the more exciting features still to come, there's always time for tweaking the units (remember there are a lot of units and different faction combinations ((some factions can use phalanx armies or sword armies or both combined) so it's difficult to keep a certain balance of gameplay, coupled with the fact that the team strives for historical accuracy above all) some faction's Elite units will be better than other equivalent faction's Elites, sometimes by a lot, relying heavily on history as a benchmark

    however you named some examples I think will be addressed in due time

    best regards,

    We ask ourselves whether our names will echo through the ages... how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved.

    BTW, didn't basilikon agema get reformed as legionary style unit just before the roman civil wars under ptolemy auletes?
    The best is yet to come.
