<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 2491543, member: 51347&quot;]Agreed on luck, but Alexander won ALL of his battles that he personally lead.&nbsp; He had the right audacity, at the right focal point, and won.&nbsp; Darius RAN for the battlefield both at Issus and Gaugemela (Arabella), and HE had a VAST advantage in the number of troops!&nbsp; However, the Makedons were disciplined, well trained, well led (both from the staff and Alexander), and held their ground enough to allow a critical advantage to be played out.&nbsp; Darius ran at Issus and abandoned his wife and daughters to Alexander, who treated them with dignity as Royalty.&nbsp; Again, Darius RAN from Gaugemela... this tells you what type of leadership this man possessed, and did not deserve his Empire...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
