While the Persian army is defeated at Plataea, the Hellenic fleet shadows the Persian fleet across the Aegean in Ionia waiting for an opportunity to strike the death knell.
After Xerxes' hasty retreat from Greece, Mardonios remains with his army to bring the defiant Greeks to heel.
After the victories at Artemision, the Greek fleet falls back to the island of Salamis giving the Athenians time to evacuate before the Persians reach the cradle of democracy.
With the fall of Leonidas opening the pass of Thermopylae, the Athenians and the rest of the Greek fleet remain as the last bulwark against the rising tide of the Persian invasion.
At a narrow pass, 300 Spartans and their allies will stand against the inexorable horde of the King of Asia.
The Greeks send envoys to every corner of the Greek world to call for aid as Xerxes marches his forces slowly towards Hellas.
Xerxes ascends the throne and after putting down a rebellion in Egypt, assembles the greatest army the world as ever seen and marches to finally subdue the meddlesome Greeks.
