Larry,
People here generally won't want to answer detailed questions, they will, rather, point you to the places where you can do your own research. It's better for both parties, because we won't then have you coming back with questions about our answers and you will pick up useful stuff you may not have thought to ask. See if you can get hold of a good reference book, like Peter Connolly's "Greece and Rome at War" (which will not only answer all the questions you've asked so far, but also give the background history) or Tim Everson's "Warfare in Ancient Greece".
