The Battle of Mycale (479 B.C.E)

The Battle of Mycale was essentially the beginning of a new phase of the Greco-Persian War known as the Greek counter-attack. The Greeks have reached Persian soil and are now taking back greek territory from the Persians and inciting another Ionian Revolt. The Greeks are trying to remove persian influence from their their lands to prevent another Invasion upon Persian soil. The Greeks start by sailing to Samos led by Xanthippus and Leotychides to answer a distress call sent by the samians. Enjoy the Battle of Mycale.
