"Infantry. Good against cavalry."
In-game description

The Hoplite is a Greek infantry unit trained at the Military Academy from the Classical Age. Hoplites are the standard infantry for the Greeks and usually form the backbone of their army.

Like other basic infantry units, Hoplites are a soft counter against cavalry and as such supposed to be cost-effective against most cavalry units. Heavier cavalry such as War Elephants and Jarls require hard counter units to be cost-effectively defeated.

Gameplay

Wielding two swords, they deal out a large amount of damage to both infantry and cavalry units. Their fairly high hack armor adds to their effectiveness in melee combat making them versatile infantry units. If resources and population space allows it they can and should replace Murmillo as the primary infantry unit.

Like the Murmillo, they are strong against cavalry but in addition to that they have an attack bonus against infantry as well. However, they are unable to carry shields and like most infantry are vulnerable to ranged attacks. While they can take down archers if they get close enough they will likely be picked off before they get too close. As such they should be included in formations with Arcus, which can defeat enemy archers due to their superior range or Contarius, which can close the gap with archers easily.

Fanatic Hero

"Infantry, Hero. Good against infantry, cavalry and myth units."
In-game description

History

"The Fanatic is an expensive, late unit that is good against all other normal units and is vulnerable to units that are good against infantry like Toxotes or Throwing Axemen. War cultists devoted to one Titan or another presented a great threat to the ruling priest class of early Atlantis - they were powerful, destructive and bowed to no law but their own. After the Titans were imprisoned some groups of cultists, still eager for blood but aware of their sudden vulnerability, organized under the banners of Atlantis. They were the Fanatics - they fought with two swords, disdaining the protection of a shield."

Trivia

Fanatics were (according to the in-game files) meant to be called Royal Guards. The Fanatic's proto name is Royal Guard; Royal Guard Hero for the hero version.
Fanatics (much like Murmillos, and to an extent Destroyers) are based on a gladiator, specifically a Dimachaerus.
The Fanatics artwork appears to have been based upon a common depiction of the Incan creator god, Viracocha, likely yet another connection between the Atlanteans and South America.
It also seems to have many fish-like elements, which are even more accentuated in Retold, with visible decorative fins.

-Hoplites are best used to counter cavalry units. However, in a skirmish, most cavalry units will simply be able to run away from them. Hoplites are quite versatile as they can defeat most other infantry units. However, like all infantry they are vulnerable to counter-infantry and ranged soldiers (except for Turmae).

-Hoplites are well armored, and, of the four standard infantry units, they have the most hit points - far more than the [[Spearman]] and [[Berserk]]. However, they are also the most expensive, slowest, and have the longest training time. This makes rushing with them more difficult, except for Zeus players, whose Hoplites move faster and do extra damage to buildings.

-{{Quote|The predominate Greek soldier of antiquity was the Hoplite, named after the great round shield he carried into battle. Hoplites wore helmets, leg armor, and chest armor, and carried a great long spear. They fought in dense columns with the spear points from several ranks projecting out from the formation. They thus presented a formidable block bristling with spears held above the shoulder. In battle they would close with the enemy as a pushing wall of shields, stabbing with their spears over the shields. Men behind would push those in front and stab over them. This fighting was face-to-face and terrifying, requiring high skill and discipline. Battles were usually short but deadly. Before the rise of the Hoplite, most army fighting had been more long-range archery and posturing. The Greeks made war personal and intense, and Hoplites dominated ancient battlefields for centuries.|In-game compendium}}

-==Trivia==
-* The Hoplite went through a few design changes throughout the development. Originally, they would wear linothorax armor in their Champion upgrade.
-* Hoplites were also to use square shields, inspired by the Mycenaeans tower shields, some months before release. However, Ensemble Studios decided to revert back to them using Hoplon-type shields, most likely because they were more distinctive.
