    Pike factions? What do you mean? Are you playing as the romans? Phalanx formation seems to be working fine for me. Can you specify or rephrase your question?

    Yap, in every battle at one point..phalanx units start spred out on entire map..like in theat picts' from spoiler. I mean...every phalanx unit start spread out. Plus in battle because of this SPREDOUT on map, phalanx units lose. They don't keep the line, actually they stand (on guard mode) and tourn with back to enemy..and get easy killd.
    In every SPQR mod version I have this problem.I instal correct this mod owver a clean copy. In even have also RS2 instal, and work perfect. On previous vs of SPQR I realy though the problem was me, but now I am not sure of this.

    The phalanx-bug you describe is due to the engine. It happens once the phalanx-soldiers switch to their secondary weapons(usually the swords). The bug was corrected in version 1.9(alexander). So if you dont want this bug playing SPQR you must play it with the alex-exe.....or remove the secondary weapon of the phalangites.

    IT happens to me with other soldiers as well, so its worth to use the Alexander. exe probably. Not sure how it works on other troops tho

    Wow, I never had that happen in my tests. Could it be something with the Non English versions? I did alot of tests back with 6.0 and never had the issue. I guess the simple fix would be for you to remove the Secondary sword. I dont suggest using Alex.exe could cause CTD issues as the Game is designed to use features in RTW that are not in Alex like Testudo. In my game when the Phalanx formation fails they switch to Swords and fight, so I don't know why it doesn't happen with me. Maybe it has something to do with Gold versions? I use the old version of RTW with the 1.5 patch.

    Hello guys! Please help. I have the same problem but with Rome: Total war this time. It happens very often and I hate it cause it's usually the reason way I lose sometimes. The phalanx seems to loose formation for no reason and the units themselves are "pushed" on every corner of the battlefield.. (they seem to be receiving hits and abounded the formation moving backwards) Any tips I could use?

    Like it said Remove the secondary weapon and that should fix the bug with RTW
