Only the enemies ultra elite or general units achieve similar kill counts usually slightly over a hundred. Frankly I just think of the AIs armies as a delivery mechanism for his missile units to keep away cavalry. Not as CA seems to think, the hammer in every ancient army who achieved most kills. These are essentially peasants armed with the cheapest weapons available meant only to screen advance armies. Because the AI gets eight of these units for free in every town I attack it gets really annoying. My generals elite foot companions got wiped out trying to clear units of unsupported skirmishers from a street. Them cutting apart my phalanxs as they easily held off other enemy attacks. Just today I had a bunch of nightmare battles ruined by enemy peltasts. The AI will just cut your whole army down with missile fire unless you charge them. Thjey're so effective that I am forced to charge in every single battle and fighting defensively is suicidal.
The recent patchs make them killing machines and not a unit meant meerly to "harass" Stationary armoured hoplites in phalanx mode fall like rain under a few javilin units. Those unit kill far above what they cost and can kill any unit in the game. There is no way that a unit of javilins should cost a third of a unit of hoplites.
