"In 280 BC a Gallic invasion army of some 85,000 warriors marched southwards into Macedon and central Greece and then split into three divisions. One of these three Gallic armies led by Brennus, and apparently belonging to an otherwise unknown tribe called the Prausi, encountered a Greek coalition army of Aetolians, Boeotians, Athenians, Phocians, and other Greeks at the narrow pass of Thermopylae, The Gauls suffered heavy losses attempting to force the pass, but then found a way to bypass Thermopylae and were able to advance on Delphi. (24 turns, 15,000pts a side)"
