thamlett Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I made a demo map to demonstrate that the Gallic Heavy Swordsmen can beat the Spartan Hoplites.http://youtu.be/-fLK4_oUZ24It still says in the "loading" screen that the Spartan Hoplites are the best!

WhiteTreePaladin Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 They probably are the best infantry citizen-soldier unit. Not sure it's really fair to compare them to champion units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollth Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I think that the loading screen should be altered over having hoplites buffed (Considering swordsmen are meant to counter spearmen) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGood Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 They probably are the best infantry citizen-soldier unit. Not sure it's really fair to compare them to champion units. Spartan hoplites are the champion Spartan infantry, perioikoi hoplites are their citizen-infantry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTreePaladin Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Oh, didn't know we had two different hoplites... I thought those were just "Spartan" hoplites. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thamlett Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 yeah, in the map editor it called it "spartan_champion_spear"or something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) yeah, in the map editor it called it "spartan_champion_spear"or something like that but citizen soldier are easy to defeat by their counters( swordman in this case).You must looking for the Elite Spartan Hoplite. That very strong. But it's possibly can be defeat them. Edited February 24, 2014 by Lion.Kanzen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Mania Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Have you ever try purchasing Agoge tech?If you do, they are the best hoplite in the game.Now here's some picture:Plus with some martial skill, weapon and armor research and you'll get the best Elite hoplite in the game.
