Strategoi strengthen the attack aura they grant to nearby infantry and cavalry.

Overview

Effect and affected units
Taxiarchs changes strategos: Grants additional +1 attack to nearby melee units, +33% aura radius. The affected target is nearby melee units, +33% aura radius; the bonus does not automatically apply to the rest of the roster. This is the main reason to research it; compare the affected units with the army you expect to field.
Research cost and timing
Research is available in Classical Age at the Fort. The recorded cost is 300 Food, 400 Gold, and the research time is 40 seconds. Consider whether the upgrade will affect enough units or workers to repay that investment before the match is decided.
Effect and research timing
Strategoi strengthen the attack aura they grant to nearby infantry and cavalry. Effect: Strategos: Grants additional +1 attack to nearby melee units, +33% aura radius. Research becomes available in: Classical Age; Research at: Fort; Research cost: 300 Food, 400 Gold; Research time: 40 seconds.

Its value depends on which units receive the effect and how often they take part in combat; timing it before a major engagement can improve the whole eligible group.
