    Beautiful issue! Clean and crisp... I am still amazed how a backwater Kingdom reared a great King Philip II to bring all of Greece under a hegemony, perfected a Phalanx discipline that was incredibly successful, coupled with a well organized Companion Cavalry concept. Then to LOSE that well-seasoned King and produce a young King that effectively and perfectly executed that war-machine and conquer a major portion of their known world. At the same time, working to build prosperity throughout the areas conquered. Incredible feat in human history.
