    Cool Re: Favorite unit.

    The Greek Levy / Hellenic Levy / Hellenic Native Phalanx unit:
    - it is (relativly) cheap,
    - available with MIC2 and
    - you have lots of privinces where you can recruit them.

    Oh, and the Epirotes, the Macedonians, the KH, Pontos, the AS, the Ptolemaii (sorry, forgot the greek plural) and Baktria field them (at least one variant of it). Maybe the Getai too (but this I do not know for sure).

    EDIT: No KH and no Getai, I checked it.

    Towards the end of the book, the Moties quote an old story from Herodotus:

    "Once there was a thief who was to be executed. As he was taken away he made a bargain with the king: In one year he would teach the king's favorite horse to sing hymns."
    "The other prisoners watched the thief singing to the horse and laughed. 'You will not succeed,' they told him. 'No one can.' To which the thief replied, 'I have a year, and who knows what will happen in that time. The king might die. The horse might die. I might die. And perhaps the horse will learn to sing.'"
