GAMEPLAY

Type: Squad

Point costs: 15

The Phalanx Squad forms a strong line of defense against the opponent's ranged attacks. If the squad's shields are combined into a bulwark, they can even block the opponents' line of sight. Then their long lances are already waiting for a devastating blow.

BACKGROUND


The battle order of the phalanx, which has been handed down for thousands of years, never lost its importance in Atlantean warfare, at least in the traditional sense. Especially due to the pronounced focus of modern armies on fighting at a distance, the basic principle of the phalanx shines in new, yet modified splendor. The tower shields of the Atlantic Phalanx, made of very light, impenetrable alloy, are designed in such a way that they can form a gapless barrier – like puzzle pieces interlocking with one another. In this form, it defies all fire and offers even ricochets no chance of a hit. Hydraulic anchor elements for sinking the shield wall into the ground provide additional stability even against large-caliber fire. The phalanx always forms the front line, an impenetrable wall behind which the Atlantic forces march onto any battlefield protected from fire.
