   Skill 1

   Macedonian Phalanx

   For two seconds nearby friendly marches deal more and take less damage, and his own march gets double the effect.

2. 
   Skill 2

   Sarissa

   On the map his cavalry gain attack, infantry defence, archers health, and the whole troop marches faster.

3.

   A mixed troop marches faster and takes less damage; a troop of one unit type deals more damage instead.

4. 
   Skill 4

   Conqueror of Chaeronea

   Basic attacks on map troops sometimes blast up to three nearby enemies and drain their rage.

5. 
   Awakened
