Title: OGAM Macedonian invasion of Egypt

I had a very enjoyable 1000 point game of Of Gods and Mortals this week. Always a great little game even if my preferred patroness (Athena) has failed me dismally in the last few battles.

Looks like it was fun.

Keeps making me hope that we'll get a second OGAM book with more stuff...

Cheers gents.

@SotF, I believe Ganesha Games (run by the author of OGAM, even though it is an Osprey title) has more detailed source books with enlarged army lists and extra special rules in the works. The first own will be a fully fledged Celtic book due out (I think) early next year.

Brilliant!
Great eye candy and very enjoyable report.

My Greek OGAM force is something that I have promised myself to get around to next year.
With that in mind, which figures did you use for the Undead Hoplites?
They look great!

Thanks Mason.

Not sure who made the Greeks to be honest. They were passed on to me by a friend. They look to be late 6th century chaps, and the officers may be Spartans, but as to brand...? I'm told thay may have come from Northsta4 in the UK.

Cheers, Ross.
Postage from the US is a bit of a killer, but I can wait as I have plenty to get on with in the Greek force until I get to the troops.
