Some of those photos and impressions are truly spectacular! I'm not even a reenactor (just interested in historical combat) and I want to take a step in that direction so I can come to the next event (in what, five years?)!
Next time you should have everyone that attend as a hoplite put some cash into a fund for those that show up as Persians. Or to at least fund a bunch of sparabara-shields. If you find a good level of the fee/benefit it could give you more balanced forces.
