Historical Accuracy in Assassin's Creed Odyssey?

Time to (over-)analyze the arms and armor in the most recent Assassin's Creed, set in ancient Greece (431 BCE). This series has of course always taken liberties with history and spiced it up with alternative background stories and fantasy elements. But I think it's fair to say that it claims a certain degree of historical authenticity at least.
