Persians have their first outing

[FierceKitty]

Despite their giving the Indians a severe bruising, the Persians were today compelled to withdraw with terrible losses. Many men but few soldiers....

[Ithoriel]

Hopefully some fun had despite the outcome!

Pictures?

Would be nice to see some figures from a "proper" period instead of all these 18th and 19th century ones

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

First outing, first loss, same as it ever was!

[Leman]

For a second there Ithoriel, I thought you were going to say fantasy.........

[FierceKitty]

No pix this time, but they will come along at some stage.

Elephant armies are a real headache to forces with inadequate infantry.

[Leman]

I'm assuming there you are referring to enemy forces which are cavalry heavy and their horses don't like the smell of elephants.

[FierceKitty]

Yes, but in addition the Persians aren't overburdened with good infantry who might see off a few jumboes.
