Which (mainland Greek faction) is superior?

[Bootsiuv]

If I'm not mistaken, Thessalonian Cavalry are regionals, and they're good-quality light cavalry....aside from Hippeis that's about it as far as I know....and if I'm not mistaken, Thessalonian Cavalry are far superior to Hippeis.

I don't worry too much about cavalry though....light hoplites from Athens cover my flanks very well, and they're fast enough to go around the Makedonian flanks themselves.

EDIT: Anastasio, you beat me to it.

I'm sorry, but I have to strongly disagree with your assumptions that the KH has a bad starting position. It's quite well known that Antigonus ALWAYS goes north to defend Pella from Pyrrhos. I've played several KH games and have never had Athens attacked on turn 1.

I always take Korinthos on turn 2 and Chalkis on turn 3....and after that, I'd say the KH has the most defensible position in the game.
