Class: spearmen · Category: infantry · Men per unit: 60
Armed with long Sarissa pikes, colourful Pelte shields, Macedonian style helmets and – in difference to the old days – armour; these men are some of the best soldiers Epeiros can offer. After the death of their famous king Pyrrhos, they now follow his young son Alexandros in his quest to rebuild the kingdom and finally secure the throne in Pella for the Argead line.
