All of Persia comes to aid Darius. Plus he's hired a few Greeks as well. Scythed chariots, Cavalry, Persian Levy, Horse archers, Heavy Noble cavalry - a true melting pot of humanity.




















The Macedonians look pretty well organized as they started out. Gotta like masses of pikes.







So doing my part to grow the hobby.



Taylor playing Ancient Persian Empire - you must make whoosh sounds when you shoot your arrows and javelins - it's mandatory.



(Persians vs. Macedonians)




Pikes are a little disordered - hoplite mercenaries are putting up a better fight in the center then anticipated, and some Persian colonial cavalry has gotten around the flanks. Somebody is very happy with herself.







Wargame table being used for projection screen - GETTYSBURG on the big screen.
If I remove the two screws that are safety latches for the screen when it is wall mounted, I can place it over the fold down table in the foreground.


Now I can place DVD containers under the felt pad, and then apply scenics. The lips on the edges of the screen, prevent the DVD cases from sliding from under the felt, even if right at the edge.



Hope this give some ideas for a quick and easy dual purpose table (that is out of the way when not required).
