With "othismos" in mind. The opposition would continue to be pushed into the center of the wedge thereby being contained and/or killed on all sides by the defenders. The only way I have ever lost is by morale issues and getting tired. This method usually makes the attackers turn tail and run. Though I am playing a game. I use it as a what if scenario. If someone has RTW please try it. I recreated Thermopylae as best I could with "custom battle" and watched the "Sassanid" ( no Persian faction ) run back and forth into my wall of Spartans. One problem; some of my Spartans broke rank and waded into a tangled mass of light infantry and died...eventually!!! Those men each had names and I feel sorry for their loss; but they will be remembered forever.
