Xyphos is a unique technology in Chronicles: Battle for Greece available to the Spartans at the Fort upon reaching the Classical Age. Once researched, it increases the attack of Hoplite line and Monoreme line by +1 (up to a maximum of +3) for every 10 nearby enemy military units in a 10 tile radius.

The player can research only either Xyphos or Helot Levies. Once either is chosen, the option to research the other is removed.

Trivia[]

  • Xiphos is the name of an ancient Greek double-edged shortsword.
