ONUS! Greeks & Persians

This expansion adds forces and battles from the Persian Wars and the early Peloponnesian War era, extending the Persians vs. Greeks conflict with historical units and factions. Players field new unit cards for Persia, Athens, Sparta and various Greek poleis and mercenaries, each with distinct stats and battlefield roles (infantry, cavalry, archers, skirmishers and specialty troops). Gameplay integrates these units into the base system: players build forces, deploy formations on a hex grid, activate units, and resolve combat and tactical maneuvers using the core activation and command mechanics. Scenarios recreate period-specific engagements and allow mixed-army matchups, offering additional tactical options without changing the base rules.
