Hi.

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.

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).

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.

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.
