Hellenistic Factions: Greek Expansion

Update: 27.10.2019 New unit "Hypaspistai Machairaphoroi" has been added. Thureos hoplites has been fixed. I had rewrote characteristics of defense and armor as they have thureos instead of hoplon and now they can throw a javelins before the attack. Also, the names and icons of some units have been changed.

Hello everyone!
This is a remake of my old mod "Hoplites of Greek Polis". In this version, I have deleted a few units from my old mod, which, according to my research, did not correspond to the era of 3rd-2nd centuries BC. You will also find more Thureophoroi, Thorakitai and Machairaphoroi, these units were the core of the Hellenistic armies of that time period. In addition to the Greek factions, this mod adds several units to the Illyrian factions, as well as a few for the Thracians. The unit stats are well balanced and have been adapted to the vanilla units roster and my other unit packs. This mod is compatible solely with patch 18, it cannot be used on earlier game versions.

Many changes affect the Wrath of Sparta dlc:

The development of the cities increases the garrisons for all factions
It also reskins all Greek units
Units can be recruited per 2-3 turns
Redesigned and strengthened some Persian units
Added hoplites of different Greek Polis for all Greek factions.
