Battle for the Beach of Troy

 Recreating the battle scene from the film Troy, we have the defenders of Troy on the right beyond the temple, and the ship bearing the Myrmidons, beaching itself on the left. Alongside the bow, you can make out Achilles himself, the first to jump ashore...

Seen from the viewpoint of the Trojans, there is Achilles charging up the beach...

As the first Myrmidons join Achilles, the archers of Troy take down several...

Achilles (r of c) charges up the beach and  takes down the first defender...

As his Myrmidons join him, Achilles lays several to waste...

 Eudoros (just above Achilles, (r of c) and more Myrmidons join Achilles in the fight...

Ajax the Greater lands up the beach from Achilles...

Plunging in amongst the defenders, Ajax the Greater (right of center, swinging hammer)  inflicts his own casualties...

Rushing up the hill towards the temple, Achilles (just about center) is alone and overwhelmed!! Thats not supposed to happen...

Eudoros (front of temple) attempts to seek revenge for the fall of his Lord...

Hector and the Appoloniand Guard arrive; Ajax and Eudoros both fall to the Trojans, and we bring the game to a halt. We agreed that we needed to tweak the rules (adaptation from WarGods) as the 'superheroes" fell too easily.We'll see next time, at the Walls of Troy...
