As said in the title, I am looking for rules for the classical Greek period. |

You might have a look at Typhon by Alternative Armies. |

Osprey has "Of Gods and Mortals." It can be a low figure count game. It also has gods/magic/mythology if you want to incorporate that into a game. |

If you are looking for man to man, then Typhon will give you good period feel. They are designed for fighting mythical monsters but would work fine for historical. |

I've been playing Mortal Gods from Footsore recently, gives a low level skirmish feel and a nice game. |

John, I mean small groups ore one figure = one man. Thanks for all the suggestions. |

Saga Age of Hannibal is another. Men of Bronze is a large skirmish, or small army, however you wish to look at it. |

Men in Bronze, I'd say. It is a lot like The Sword and the Flame. All the mechanics have a small unit feel to them, but instead of dicing for combat [both melee and shooting] figure by figure, you do it by Unit. The examples in the book are all 28mm figures mounted individually. A Unit is ten figures, but could easily be 6 or 16 as it is table representation. The historical feel is very good. There are a few playtests out there in blog land, and a couple of reviews on Youtbue. I got them for $12 USD or so at abebooks or something. |
