I don't know much about KoDA but is it true that they have a rule similar to the mahuds impaler rule...
No, they have lances.
The tactics and army is fine, although I have a captain in my front rank. I normally use my knights as a reseve and dirct them where they can do the most damage with the minimum risk. Keep your rangers mobile and be prepared to move the pikes into the front if the KoDA gets killed, the Rangers should always avoid the fighting and support where possible.
Don't be fixated into fighting in a 3-deep phalanx as this means your front rank will be trapped; go 3 ranks every other file as this prevents entrapment and allows your pikes to replace front rank casualties.
