Hoplite configuration

[amhero15]

How do you guys configure your hoplites? I try to make a mix of swordsmen and spears, but what should I put in export_descr_unit.

[Genius of the Restoration]

Straight line and encircle if equal troop numbers or terrain dependent.

I think he wants to know how to modify the hoplite's fighting style.

[Lucarius]

Not Like This

[Punic Hoplite]

If you want to get rid of the phalanx and make them fight more like spearmen, make the entry look like this:

stat_pri_attr spear, spear_bonus_8

Just delete the 'long_spear' attribute. Or, I think that's how I did it. I edited my files many months ago

[Lucarius]

I got it !
