Re: Gladiators?
Gladiators are situational - but more useful than often thought.
If you *know* you are going to take casualties anyway, (for example, facing cav, why not make the casualties glads?
It *is* difficult to use these troops multiple moves away from a castle. So, these troops are often best used with a nation that has a lot of castles.
The gladiators come in two flavors -- nets, and flails. (iirc). Nets are very useful against thugs, sc's and cav. Flails hit very hard for their density.
I wrote a little about glads in my EA-Ermor write up.
