Unique Units

Spartan Hoplites: Spartan hoplites are trained from infancy to be nothing but soldiers. They are 'perfect soldiers' and nothing else. They can be trained only in cities of Sparta and Syracuse. Have a very low value in money.

Armoured Hoplites: Armoured hoplites are an elite among Greek soldiery, carefully selected and given the best training to make them superior spearmen. They are the third most effective spear unit in the game, after sacred band and spartans.
