Basic Impetus2 - 2.2 Athens 450-275 BC

Hoplite Power!

For our Basic Impetus2 games, I've been concentrating on painting ALL the Ancients figures in the spares box.  A lot of Pike armies have been put together, but I've manged to  put together enough troops to build a Hoplite Army.   We've got plans for a 'Chaeronea' type battle, so here is a 'Greek' Army.  To be far, it's a pretty powerful army with a whopping 6 elements of heavy foot.   

2.2 Athens 450-275 BC

Athenian and allied Hoplites       6xFP* VBU=5, I=2, VD=3, Long spear
Greek cavalry                             1xCM* VBU=5, I=2, VD=2
Greek /Thracian merc. Peltasts  1xFL VBU=4, I=2, VD=2, Javelin
Javelinmen                                 1xS VBU=2, I=0, VD=1, Javelin
