Greytown bash: Seleucids vs Early Achaemenid Persians - posted by Paul Graham, 12 February 2025

Greytown Bash, more pictures, this time from the Seleucid media team from the safety of their elephant howdah. The Seleucids played Keith's Carthaginians, Andrew's Early Persians, Drew's Germans and Julian's Persians, reaching a rather flattering score of 45/100. Lessons: don't attack Ps(S) on top of difficult hills, and leave the cost-ineffective Wb(S) at home.

Swarms of Persian cavalry and sparabara rolling towards the Seleucid line.

The phalanx reconsiders its employment contract in the face of waves of Carthaginian auxiliaries, warband and spearmen.

German flank march turns up in turn 3.

Pikes break through the Persian line.

Another lesson is to not charge light cavalry with your wedged knights.....
