Unfortunately despite the Persian army lists going back to 550BC I can't see any mention of an Eqyptian army list.Hoplite1963 wrote: , Late Period Egyptian Infantry with oblong shield and spear,

Re: Field of Glory II: Immortal Fire announced!
Normally they are. I expect the screen shot was taken with the game set to Difficulty Level 1 or 6, which adjust troop quality.grumblefish wrote:FOG 2 doesn't seem to have allied army lists, so I am curious how that will all work. Also, in the pictures I see that some of the armoured citizen hoplites are "below average" quality; if these people really are citizens of their polis and they are able to afford a full panoply, then why would they be below average? Seems they should be at least average.

I feel your pain, but I am bound by a code of silence. However, you can expect an announcement early next week.Scutarii wrote:Well, i ask this becuase i want close my buy list using matrix specials + coupon, in the moment coupon arrive i do the big buy but if need wait a little to have inmortal fire...

I think the last was 24–25 April 1941 between the Germanic Hordes and the Later Imperial BritishPaul59 wrote:There was actually many battles at Thermopylae, it being on the main invasion route into southern Greece, there was another well known one in 191 BC between the Romans and Seleucids, and I am sure there were others too.

Sorry, but why the Thebans/Beotians do not put into a separate army?rbodleyscott wrote: The following Greek lists are included.

- Kyrenean Greek 550-461 BC

- Spartan 460-281 BC
- Syracusan 421-281 BC

What about the deep Theban phalanx with a depth of 50 ranks?
In many wargame systems the Thebans is a separate army.
In addition, the equipment of the Thebans and images on the shields different from the other Greeks.
Give us more variety from the Greeks, please!

Re: Field of Glory II: Immortal Fire announced!
Well we can't really have 50 ranks deep units, because they would be 12 ranks of models deep and would not fit on the square. So even if we did have some deeper units for Thebans, they would still need to be several units deep to represent 50 ranks. The effect of this is probably best represented by custom POAs in the scenario script of a Leuktra scenario, rather than in the vanilla army lists.XOPT13 wrote:Sorry, but why the Thebans/Beotians do not put into a separate army?

Re: Field of Glory II: Immortal Fire announced!
You can do some Thebans units as 12-16 figures of spearmen, I think. Why you don't create indepedent Theban army list?
Some people want to play with theban battle gays!
