Well, now I'm pressed for time, and my Last post got deleted as my computer decided to crash, so here's the short list Version:
1)What are some good general Acro. strategies?
Arco generally does well with a variety of strategies, most centered on their excellent mages. They also can use SCs better than most because of their healing priestesses.

Quote:
2)Do their trample units really have any worth... other than failing moral?
I don't use them... but if you search the forum, I'm sure you can find ways of dealing with the morale issue (mixing higher-morale troops in).

Quote:
3)Best strategy to use to counter armies with missile superiority?
If you can get Staff of Storms, that's a one-stop answer. If not, you have great HI with good shields. Your main form of missile fire is magical artillery barrages.

Quote:
4)Is it better to build heavy elite hoplite\hyapist armies, or numerically superior peltast armies,etc???
The general consensus here is that LI is worthless, though I believe the Peltast is one that is sometimes used. Stick with Hypaspists, though. Faster and better morale than Hoplites. That's the common wisdom.

any helps appreciated, thanks.
Not a problem.
