Then you are saying that Pangaea should build minotaurs over satyrs, and Atlantis should build those big guys over their little ones?
I'm not a Pangea specialist, but the little I've played them I've found the basic Satyr were pure crap, maybe worse than militia cause they aren't even cheap !
So I'd largely vote for Satyr Hoplites, Minotaurs and Centaurs
Maybe there's an use for sneaky bands of satyrs but I don't think the AI can have any idea of a "sneaky strategy"
Atlantis should also favor Coral guards or at least Reef Warriors over basic Spearmen.
I see no problem here ...
