There is not a lot of traffic on the thread for Exp 5, so I thought it would be useful to put this here as well.

I've done a proofing job on the 12 scenarios for Epics and, since a number of people have posted the question, have rec'd permission to post the list.

Here they are:

Marathon 490 Athenians go the distance
Plataea 479 Persians find a lot more than 300 Spartans
Crimissos River 341 Carthage vs Syracuse: the band played on
Gaugamela 331 Alexander v Darius: One of the classics
Hydaspes 326 Alexander finds India not so Porus
Paraitacene 317 One of the Successor battles, with no real winner
Beneventum 275 Greeks in Italy discover something worse than “pyrrhic victory”
Bagradas 253 1st Punic — Regulas vs Xanthippus
Clusium 225 Rome v Cisalpine Gauls, who play “follow me”
Lake Trasimenus 217 2nd Punic — Hannibal gives a swimming lesson
Dertosa 215 2nd Punic: Spain Hannibal’s brother (Hasdrubal) vs Brothers Scipio
Arausio 105 Rome’s rival armies vs Germanic Tribes: results rival Cannae for disaster

I'd like to have seen Cunuxa and Gergovia

That being said.. Gaugamela has me salivating

Yes, I had thought too that they would use this opportunity to do battles they missed, like Mycale, Cunaxa, Chaeronea, Megalopolis...

I guess that Gaugamela was unavoidable!

Most of these are great!

Some of them are... curious.

All of them will be awesome.
