		Battle of Gabiene (316 BC) was a second great battle (after Paraitacene) between two of Alexander the Great's successors: Antigonus and Eumenes in the wars of the Diadochi.
		Since the sole reference of this battle is ultimately from Eumenes' personal aid Hieronymus of Cardia (later transmitted through the historian Diodorus), who later switched his allegiance to Antigonus, he provides a unique perspective from both parties' point of view.
		Despite the fact that these battle hardened veterans were old enough to be their opponents' grandfathers, they were still highly respected and thought to be invincible in combat.

		Elephants used by Egyptians at the battle of Raphia in 217 BC were smaller than their Asian counterparts, but that did not guarantee victory for Antiochus III the Great of Syria.
		From the battle of Heraclea (280 BC, Macedonian Wars) to the famous march across the Alps by Hannibal during the Second Punic war, elephants terrified the Roman legions.
		In battle, war elephants were usually deployed in the centre of the line, where they could be useful to prevent a charge or start one of their own.

	Cavalry
		Excepting scythed chariots the use of chariots in battle was obsolete by the time of the Persian defeat in the hands of Alexander the Great, but chariots remained in use for ceremonial purposes such as carrying the victorious general in a Roman triumph and among the Gallic and Germanic tribes.
		It was in this manner that the cavalry of the Parthian Empire destroyed the troops of Crassus (53 BC) in the battle of Carrhae.
		The battle of Dorylaeum (1097) during the First Crusade shows the advantages and disadvantages of mounted archers; the rider groups of the Seljuk sultan Kilij Arslan I were able to surround an army of Crusaders and shoot them from a distance.

	Rome: Total Modding - my first homemade battle
		After seeing all the neat historic battles on Time Commanders and noticing that the game files include reference to some of these battles, I am annoyed that, first, they didn’t include Pharsalus or Tigranocerta and, second, that the historic battles they did include are far from historic.
		Also, the Great Battle of History Collector’s Edition included Paraitacene as one of their battles so I have a pretty decent order of battle to work with.
		I finished the battle, though, and gave it a spin.

	Diadochi (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although Eumenes defeated the rebels in Asia Minor, in a battle at which Craterus was killed, it was all for nought, as Perdiccas himself was murdered by his own generals Peithon, Seleucus, and Antigenes while preparing an invasion of Egypt.
		After great battles at Paraitacene in 317 BC and at Gabiene in 316 BC, Eumenes was eventually betrayed and murdered by his own troops in 315 BC, leaving Antigonus in undisputed control of the Asian territories of the Empire.
		But although Cassander was tempted to conclude peace with Antigonus, in Asia the war turned against the one-eyed general, with Ptolemy invading Syria (and defeating Antigonus'son, Demetrius, in the Battle of Gaza, 312 BC) and Seleucus securing control of Babylon, and thus, of the eastern reaches of Alexander's empire.

	Re: orion-list War Scroll String
		I'll reply with Tarn, that "the West first made its acquaintance [with elephants] in Alexander's battle on the Hydaspes against Porus, for the elephants at Gaugamela were not in action.
		This was quite unlike Alexander's other battles; as untrained horses will not face elephants he was unable himself to help his army, beyond defeating Porus' cavalry and pretending them from interfering.
		In most of his battles he saved his men all he could by using his brains; he never, if he could by any means avoid it, fought a battle like Pyrrhus' battles with the Romans, in which the two sides merely hammered each other till something gave way.

		Thus, the battle was a tactical win for Antigonos despite possessing an inferior force to his adversary in the field.
