I'm not sure, but think that the fashion the hoplitai used to fight was something like a " pushing match".That means(especialy when they were facing other hoplites) they used to charge the enemy and crush on them shield against shield. The soldiers in the last line pushed their shields against the next line's soldiers' backs and ,eventually, the soldiers on the front line pushed their shield against the enemy while stabing them with their spears.
I noticed that the spearmen in M2TW use an "shield bash" animation. Can this be used to make the way the hoplitai fight more realistic?
(I'm not sure that the way of battle that I describe fits with EB's time frame. If not please enlighten me)
