Quote:I think the Spartans smashing through the Persian wicker shield wall would be nice.
Hey Johnny,
I think Connoly did a piece like that, but from a perspective looking along the line perpendicular to the two battlelines. For the sake of symmetry, and to comfort the shades of my ancestors after the Leuktra illustration, the prespective of a persian soldier seeing spartans hack and push their way through the pavises of the sparabara might be nice.

A Spartan, being asked a question, answered "No." And when the questioner said, "You lie," the Spartan said, "You see, then, that it is stupid of you to ask questions to which you already know the answer!"
