Oh. Don’t recall exactly. Several spearmen … 2 or 3? I have 6 axe, 2 spear, 4 archer, and 3 chariots left.

I’m staying, maybe till the end. 3 more hits.

Care to give me an OOL in Berenice? I may stick around longer than 1 round, may not. I have 5 hits on first roll.

Close shave … I was not counting on winning in Sardis. But breathing easier that I did.
