Looks like a solid list

The one suggestion I would make from my one and only time playing FoG, would be to take the skirmisher units in groups of 8 instead of 6.

Caliban,

I am new to the board and the FOG system.

Is there a beta list for the Persians available out right now?


Thanks for your input.

Achaemenid troop choices in Persian Wars

Will the Persian list follow Herodotus recounting of them?

I am currently building an army I would like to use in FOG.

Wanted to know how I should base my Nubian and Indian archers?

Any other advice about what units will be in the Persian host at Thermopylae & Plataea is appreciated.
