Still more work to do on the scenery and such, but you get the idea.

Aphrodite encourages Paris, while Helen watches from the walls.

Rod, are the figures for the gods the same size as the mortals?

They are listed as 75mm so technically bigger than the mortals, especially the male gods like Ares, Apollo, and Zeus.

They are Mythic Battles Game pieces I was able to find on Ebay. My plan is to use them as cool looking tokens representing temporary buffs to the mortal units, sort of like playable battle cards, fickle of course and subject to chance (i.e. roll of the dice to see if they will grant favor).

Hoping to have the full array ready for Historicon.
