i'm making a alex mini mod and its clear that the phalanx kill rates are over the top. would it be better to lower the lethality parameter or just increase defence around board?

Re: help with unit balancing
It'd be better to nerf phalanxes than buff everything, as that runs a far greater risk of unbalancing the whole game.
My 2c.
"The dark giant lay sprawled on the sands of Tunis. Far to the north the new champion of the arena lifted his arms in triumph. The galleys passed upon the sea, the soldiers laid down their arms, cities were rebuilt and peace was everywhere welcomed. The supine giant was unconscious, but not dead. Slowly he began to raise himself upon his elbows."

Re: help with unit balancing
Just lower the stats of the phalanxes. Increasing the stats of all other units will make it worse. It would also take some time, so the first option is the best, quicker and easier to implement.

i tryed just reducung your main attack while increasing there mass. so now they do push back most enemy lines but they don't mow them down. far more accurate them being more defense then offensive like tw made them. thanks for your help
Re: help with unit balancing
Thats exactly what I would have done, phalangites weren't killer troops, but were mainly there to push the enemy back with mass and hold them in place. Maybe lower lethality if you have more problems?
