P.S. I am also currently facing a problem with adjusting the normals. As you can see, it creates some strange-looking shadows. Maybe someone here has more experience with this and knows what might be going on.        

Hello everyone  I’m currently working on a new olive tree model for the Erechtheion and the olive mill. It’s still a work in progress, but here are the first results. I attached the blend file down below! For the foliage, I modeled an olive branch, textured it, and turned it into a foliage card to use for the tree. This is my first time working on a project like this, so please don’t hesitate to give feedback, I would really appreciate it! Have a great weekend! - Emma OliveTrees.blend

That melee elephants don't profit from melee upgrades does not help, either.

Use masses of ranged units, preferably ranged cavalry. Once the blob of Spartan death comes close, simply run away until you're at the safe distance. Nothing worse than dealing with annoying hit and run attacks, trust me.  Keep up with the upgrades as Spartiates have a lot of base armor.

i don't know, but attack take the bonus forge
