In-game description
Greatest of Fifty is an Egyptian myth technology that is available to worshipers of Horus and can be researched at the Barracks. Once researched, it increases infantry hit points and speed, and unlocks the ability for the player to use the Wedge unit formation, though there is nothing in-game to indicate that the technology confers this additional effect.

History
"The invasion of the Hyksos at the end of the 14th Dynasty spurred the peaceful Egyptians to organize what had, to that point, been a rather informal army. The Pharaoh often led his armies into battle. The chain of command ran from the Pharaoh and princes to other nobles and officers, down to the "Greatest of Fifty." The Greatest of Fifty commanded fifty soldiers, one of four such groups under the command of a Standard Bearer. Soldiers under a Standard Bearer all carried the same arms and armaments."
