Title: 2403 SPARTANS allies
Post by: badhabum on January 23, 2023, 09:03:53 AM
The Spartans may sometimes have allies

Now what about his

Minor state allies - Classical Greek (480 BCE)

What is a minor state ?

Can I choose thessalians as a "minor" state or should it be a more classis combination

A minor state is any "unnamed" state - so it cannot use any of the options of a named state in the Classical Greek list.  So Thessaly is not a minor state.  I accept this could be a bit clearer.

There is another line on the allies list for 478 BCE  which I think would allow you to take Thessalians as allies (but you have to take two allies). Represents the Battle of Plataea I think
