The Chremonidean League have the Power of Liberty. They replace the Persians.
A desperate alliance for desperate times, this marriage of convenience between the two former giants of the Hellenic could well represent the last throw of the dice for the city-states of Athens and Sparta. Formerly the hegemons of the Greek world, the armies of Athens and Sparta once could well shake the earth as well as Poseidon could, and shake the world they did, with heroic feats and bloody spears at places such as Salamis, Thermopylae and Marathon.
However, that was almost three centuries ago, and since then the focus of power has moved north away from Achaea and beyond. The Macedonians, bereft of their empire under the Argeadae, seek to claim the lands which Alexander once ruled over - if but for a while. Other Greek city-states and kings have reformed themselves to challenge Macedonian rule and usurp the role of hegemon, against the backdrop of clamour from rude barbarians poised to destroy the entire world as we know it.
