From 214299b6c1bb884eed7b2437437b57c26aba7cb5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Freagarach Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2021 07:03:36 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] [Gameplay] - Let Spartans start with a Champion. The Kushites start their games with an healer, the Mauryas with an elephant. The Spartans were known for their superior hoplites; this patch gives them one champion infantry at game start, to make them feel a bit different from other factions. It won't suddenly make them win games, although it could help a bit defending against very early raids.
