OK, I've made the videos. Uploading to rapidshare. I'll be updating the post as they get done:
(note: some will be compressed with WinRAR and the last one will be split in two with WinRAR. You need winRAR to view those!)
(note2: I play with battlesize 90. 120 is even more chaotic. 200 is  unplayable with my computer, but chaotic as hell Wink)
Also for some reason I can't get the sound to record..Sad
Also I get these glitches with mods and bigger battle size...don't know why. Recording the video surely doesn't help, so bear with that please.

I think there was this greek-persian wars mod that had already some perian stuff modelled.
It depends if you want to have it the movie style or historically accurate..
 
And maybe you could add the choice of fighting for the Persians. Then the fight should have an ending.
 
no it shouldn't, have several weak Persian/allies and one or two seriously overpowered Greeks and one keeps coming when another dies.
 
if someone makes it plz make it more historically accurate......the movie was good but i hated that the spartans wore no armor at all.........besides this obviously adds more to the game and would probably not work otherwise as you are not going to last long in game terms with no armor in this endless battle
 
I highly doubt that.
Spartans were renound to have the best armour of all.
The Spartans that didnt wear armour were probably helots.
I highly doubt 300 spartans would have a chance of standing against 1 million persians without armour no matter how good they were.
 
I think you'll find that the heavy breastplates came after Thermopylae, but if you can find the source to back up your statement then feel free!

The Spartans of Thermopylae had a cloak as armour. That was it. They relied on their large bronze covered shields as protection. The shield covered their bodies from knees to shoulders.

Shield + greaves + helmet + help from mates = Complete protection.
 
ya this guys right they wer elike completley naked  :neutral: still how could they even fight 1000000 persians with only 300 man thats like impossible in the real world

Dates from the first hallf of the 6th century BC, which puts it about 100 before Thermopylae. Displayed in the archeaological museum at Olympia.

 
When frank Miller wrote 300 he tke the sparta's armor off to give them more mobility. He also did some adaptations in order to make the history more exciting.
I advise you to make this mod more historical. Talk with ArabArcher, he is he one who stared to develop the Greco Persian Wars.
 
Hoplites didn't have a standard issue set of equipment. They had to buy their own, so if someone could only afford a shield and helmet, that's what they wore. If they could afford the full set, they wore that.
 
what if you just made the persians have a bunch of parties all over the map that were like 5000 men or higher and you started with your 300 soldiers in your party, already at a fairly decent level of skill. then you would have to take out wave after wave until you weakened the persians to nothing like in the last days mod. but this way you can regroup, take a break, level up or whatever instead of just killing endlessly in one battle. you can possibly even have other greek parties that roam around and jump into battles randomly. i think if you give the mod more of a point instead of just never ending repetitiveness then it would be much more enjoyable. also for the realism thing, i think it wuld be cool if at the beggining you can choose if you would rather have a more historical approach or a movie theme as far as armor and such. but im guessing that would result in a lot of extra work.

edit: lol sorry i keep coming up with more ideas, i was thinking maybe once u reach a certain point then the rest of your army comes like in the movie, then you just have one all out battle to end the mod. ofcourse this would be much improved with a battlesize modifier.

and wasnt it 20,000(or 200,000)? that movie seems so ahistorical, i dont think that anybody should attempt to make something that replicates it. i would much rather have a historical mod about the greco-persian wars
