City States: Thorakites
Versatile Infantry Kit: 12 plastic miniatures to create either Agéma or Thorakites, 1 set of infantry bases, 2 command cards.
While Phalangites and Hoplites excel in structured formation combat on open terrain, they struggle in confined spaces and rugged landscapes. Enter the Thorakites, offering a solution to these challenges. Trained to a higher physical standard and unencumbered by the rigid formations of the phalanx, Thorakites provide an opportunity for a resourceful commander to exploit battlefield developments that traditional phalanx tactics cannot address.
In action, while Hoplites form an immovable shield wall, Thorakites safeguard the flanks of the Phalanx and capitalize on gaps in enemy lines. Incorporate Thorakites into your Strategic Stack and synchronize their movements with a retreating Hoplites/Phalangites Regiment. As the Hoplites/Phalangites withdraw, the Thorakites seize the moment to charge through openings in the enemy's defenses.
