The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon

Philip said that the Athenians were like the bust of Hermes: all mouth and dick.

The film was decent, but nothing beats our reconstruction of the battle at the Festival... Wink

I have not spent months gathering Hoplites from the four corners of the earth just to let
some Swedish pancake in a purloined panoply lop their lower limbs off!

hate to be a complainer but i expect more from a big network that specialises on history. I mean common the costumes were innacurate and poor. The drawings were at least funny. Technology advanced so much that we can have impessive stuff at reasonable prices and maybe cheaper. Maybe if we press them they will do it. After all people that care about history is their main target group.
