This I agree with and on my relatively limited playing so far I am particularly dubious about any Medium Spearmen improved over their base 7 point abilities (i.e. elite or armored). I think you are just paying extra points for something that still can't beat anything without an overlap. |
Unless in terrain |

The main thing that Spearmen are designed to beat (mounted, especially cavalry) aren't going to go into the terrain after the Spearmen. And in terrain it seems like the Medium Spearmen either gets pinned down by Javelinmen or beaten outright by Med. Sword Impact. |
