Hmm the Paastum fresco would more accuratelly depict Ekdromoi rather than formed spearmen.

Davide is right that the bandsmen are more in difficulty than regular troopers with evenly destributed load. That translates that a hoplite's biggest problem would be his shield but that could improve with training and time.

Kind regards
