In the game they're a flexible medium-spearman unit that work well with phalangists. They have javelins, so they can provide some supporting fire over the phalanx's heads, and have the Fast-Moving trait too, which makes them useful for outflanking and enveloping fixed enemy infantry. Historically, many were the most experienced, hardiest, oldest veterans of Alexander's army, though the game doesn't really reflect that well. I have a video coming where I use only hypaspists, and no phalangists.
The only thing I can think of is the difficulty setting - perhaps you need to win the battles on the hardest setting, and you had it on the intermediate setting? This is just a guess.
after about 1 min of him talking it gets really enoying

Whatever technology was considered pretty good in the year 2004 (when the game was released) - that's what you need.

Do you ever post a loss?
Because I've yet to see you lose, and I would like to see just how strategic it is, and how you comment on it.

Yes, I have posted a few of my defeats - try Macedon v. Armenia, Rome v. Carthage, Greece v. Carthage, and TWC Pre-Marian Tournament Battle 3 of 6.
ClunytheScourge1 3 years ago
Oh yes. I've noticed that after looking through more of your videos.
Like someone in another video said. "To blunder twice is not allowed in war"

when is it?
carthagertw 3 years ago
Probably not for a while. The replay has been sitting on my hard drive since the battle was fought, but I have others I want to do first.
ClunytheScourge1 3 years ago
cool! I just got the game, and it is HARD! The campaign is almost unbeatable, and, HOW DO U UNLOCK HISTORICAL BATTLES?
but, do u wanna play me soon? I will undoubtable use Persia
carthagertw 3 years ago
You unlock the Historical battles by winning each preceding one.
ClunytheScourge1 3 years ago
well, there must be a bug in my game then...i have beat the 1st one, and NOT gotten Alexander killed, but i haven't unlocked the 2nd one. any ideas?
