    1414 * '''Generic Name: Foot Companion.'''
    1515 * '''Specific Name: Pezétairos.'''
    16    * '''Class:''' Spearman.
    17    * '''Hacker Armament:''' Long Macedonian pike, the "sarissa".
    18    * '''Appearance:'''
    19      * '''Basic:''' "Rear ranker". Simple tunic. No armour or greaves. Basic pilos helmet. Round Macedonian pelta.
    20      * '''Advanced:''' "Mid Ranker". Linothorax armour (with pteruges) and bronze greaves. Open faced Thracian and Phrygian helmets, plumed and non-plumed, crested and non-crested. Round Macedonian pelta.
    21      * '''Elite:''' "Front ranker". Bronze muscled cuirass (with leather pteruges) and bronze greaves. Closed faced, feathered, plumed, and/or crested Phrygian helmets. Round Macedonian pelta.
    22    * '''History:''' The Pezhetairoi were the backbone of the Macedonian army, much like the Hoplites were for the Hellenes. What makes the Pezhetairoi different is their use of a two-handed 18 foot (6 meter) pike and their massed "syntagma" formation, a variation on the Greek Phalanx borrowed from the Thebans. The Pezhetairos is a professional, making him one of the strongest spearmen in the game.
    23    * '''Garrison:''' 1.

In the Trireme the outriggers were now an integral part of the ship's hull. The Trireme also had a partial or full fighting deck above the rowers. The length of the Trireme remained approximately 35-38 meters, and the beam was approximately 3.5 metres. A Trireme carried 170 oarsmen, plus twenty sailors and fourteen marines in Greek navies. The top speed of a Trireme was approximately 11.5 knots. Some Triremes may have been able to reach higher speeds in short bursts. A Trireme travelling from Athens to Mitylene in 427BC made the 350 kilometre trip in only 24 hours, averaging eight knots (14.6 km/h). The Trireme could accelerate much faster than a Bireme or Penteconter, and was much more manoeuvrable. This gave the Trireme an advantage in combat, where higher speed and manoeuvrability meant a better chance of victory.
    169    * '''Garrison:''' Cannot.
    170    * '''Function: '''The common tactics of the time were to ram one's opponent. Most ships at the time were equipped with a large battering ram at the bow which was used to crush the sides of an opponent. Another common tactic was to brush along the sides of the opponent's ship and snap all of the oars off. Once the ship was disabled and floundering in the waves, then the other ship could move in and finish its opponent. The Greeks employed the ramming tactics to excellent effect throughout out their naval battles. Speed was the key element for ramming and that required maneuverability and lightly armoured ships.
