Nice. Your Persians have an Allah Akbar kinda thing going for them.

While not historically accurate, I like what you have done with your "Persians" -- .they have kind of a 300 feel to them. In fact they look a lot better than the ninja Orc Persians from the movie. You have certainly inspired me. Good work.

Hi Chaps – thanks for the comments

I can take no credit for the Persians, they belong to my opponent Ian and are a mix of Artizan Moors, Wargames Factory Persians and Miniature Design Studio Persians – hes done a great job painting them

The Spartans are all by Scarab Miniatures

I am an avid player of Impetus but enjoy reading battle reports of other systems. Nice looking game. Looks like a lot of fun. I can't enthusiastically embrace single based figures and movement trays. Just doesn't cut it aesthetically for me.

MB – a lot of my figures are based on 40mm sqs, or in various other multiples with a few singles. I use casualties figs to keep track of the 'dead'

Removing the casualties assists with play so you can see if a formation is over half strength or not – once at half strength it has a morale penalty – I accept model removal shows the base of the movement tray but I know some players who have created 'blank bases' with either casualty models on them or simply matching basing material. A good idea which should I ever have the time, I shall copy!

Theres some page spreads from the book on these links
link and link for any one who wants to check out the quality of the product itself

cheers
