Title: [WMA] - Solo hoplite wars: Leoind vs King Minos
Post by: jchaos79 on 24 January 2015, 12:39:53 PM
Here we go, both greek armies. Noble cavalry is wrong based, but I play with "what you see is what you get" so I include the shock special.

Minotaurs are sacred band with the special of spartans.

The battle has two exciting points:
- First the cavalry and peltast fight. Trying to fix with your own peltast the enemy skirmisher and then hit them with the cavalry

-Test leoind upgrade. It is soo cheap for the benefit it gaves, but also this kind cheap over-power on the general is a curse in a long term, because you could not resist to use it in combat and you know when general attaches in the front rank... all can happens  ;)

Citizens hold your spears up and grab thigh your shield.... we are going to the war!

It was real fun, the only bad point is the hoplites did not enter in combat becasue Leoind dies.

So today I made another solo greek wars, this time Poseidon vs Athens.

JChaos,

I must admit that I don't know anything about Ancients battles/wargaming, but those figures look great and that game looked like a lot of fun!  Very inspirational, in that I found myself looking at those figures on the Pendraken website.  Good stuff!

V/R,
Jack

They are mainly pendraken classic greek (hoplites, peltast and cavalry), the minotaurs from the fantasy range and there is also some magister millitum greeks (hoplites and peltast).

cheer you like it.
