The phalanx had interlocking shields, so it was like a "turtle". Also men in the phalanx's usually wore heavy armor.
So therefore it was very hard for an enemy army, to attack a army in a phalanx, due to the vast armor protection and interlocking shields the phalanx possessed. Also the sturdy heavy shields and armor made phalanx's very adept against archers.
Soldiers in phalanx "mode" were also equipped with long spears which were deadly against Calvary, and made them very sturdy opponents against normal ground troops.
However the phalanx's had many major weaknesses...like the lack of mobility, the need for extraordinary amounts of discipline to stay together and the massive vulnerability to a flanking attack.
