Well, not just peltasts, any loose-order troops generally. We tried the 8/4 fighting light infantry and even with buffs like Spears As Tribute they didn't fit the bill. We worked out a conversion by dropping the Stamina by one and the points cost by two then giving the units the Agile trait (but only in its front 180 degree arc). You can find further explanation and reasoning here link
