War Council

Moves first

Persian Army
Leader: Mithradtes, Rhoesaces, Spithrates
Command: 4
Initial Hand Size: 7

Victory
6 Banners

Special Rules
Granicus River is fordable.

When attached to Alexander, unit will battle with +1 die in CC.

Starred unit is Greek Companion Cavalry. Place a special unit Block with it. Companion Cavalry will ignore 1 Crossed Sword and may ignore 1 Flag.

Poor Persian Leadership: The 3 Persian Leaders only convert leader symbol results into hits for units to which they are attached--not adjacent units. A Leadership card will only order the units to which the leader is attached, not adjacent units. However, a leader will still boost morale of the unit to which he is attached, so it may ignore 1 flag.
