Description
"Just after midnight, the Legion arrived at Ri'aka and formed a line across its fields, anchoring its center on the old ruined keep. As the first moments of dawn lightened the skies, the alarms were raised.... Zrie's army had arrived."

superb!outstanding image! beautiful composition, vote
You did a really good job with this one. I only have one pretty serious complaint - The 47th guy from the fort in the third row is wearing Nikes.
Wonderful, I thought that the shoes were converse though.... ;}
must be keeping the cavalry in reserve..;) great work..a formation like this was called a 'battle', like a..oh..battalion or so..armies were a lot smaller then..
