I agree with the recommendations for Xyston, I have a successor army using these and they are amazing. What I would also recommend is using plastic broom bristles for the Pikes, this has the advantage of being cheaper, safer and less likely to be damaged as they bend and bounce back into shape when knocked about.

Below is a link on how to do this.

Thanks, i thoughtvtbat might be the case.

Hi, Im very new to the game but my searches haven't turned up a answer for me;
Scutari arent listed in any of the Classical Spanish lists but are in the Later Cartheginian list. I'm just wondering what the thinking is behind this? I thought they were a big part of the Spanish warriors, but I'm by no means an expert and appreciate any guidance.
