The Ancient Persian or Early Achaemenid empire dominated the Middle East from modern Turkey to India. With vast wealth and large populations to draw on the ancient Persian kings fielded enormous armies (although modern movies aside, they didn't seem to have rhinoceros cavalry!) that controlled their sprawling empire.
Traditional foes of the Ancient Greeks, our range covers the armies of Xerxes and Darius and the two major invasions of Greece. Refight the battle of Thermopylae or Plataea.
