- plans to rip-off a battle from ancient history
- opponent leader preemptively approaches your camp for maximum foil of said strategy
Well, that's "realism" for ya.
You'd think the necromancer would have some limits. Now it looks like the geezer could conquer the whole world alone, simply by creating new undead thralls endlessly.
that 300 is not correct though. there are other greeks participate in that battle. sure the number is still outnumbered by persian but it is still more than 300.
@glscarves he’s not a historian, just a pragmatic and mildly smart guy. It’s a common myth to get wrong if you aren’t a history buff. At least Astaroth’s smart enough to set up a bottleneck ambush properly, but it seems he didn’t actually take high ground of the valley before Shartal did, which is confusing.
