Thanks for letting me know. I was considering watching it, but now I’m scratching that off my list of things to watch. Now I feel bad for Leslie Odom Junior for doing this.
*MUST WATCH* Disney Documentary on Air Power and more (1943)

@CWO:
The principle, in a nutshell, states that the shooting accuracy of movie bad guys is inversely proportional to their numbers.
That is a very accurate statement in the world of cinema.

I’d say it’s one of those exceptions that proves the rule. If it took 70,000 to 300,000 Persians (Herodotus claims a figure as high as two-and-a-half million) to kill 300 Spartans, that’s actually a pretty pathetic performance on the part of the Persians.
It’s a good thing the Principle of Evil Marksmanship isn’t built into the A&A rules. If that were the case, increasing the size of your attacking force would decrease the chances of rolling a hit against an enemy force. (Now that would be a bizarre concept for a house rule.)

True. However, speaking just about shots and arrows, the Persians did get them all.
