⚔️Battle of Gaugamela: 331 B.C. 📜

Welcome to Civilisations History and Masculinity. Where we delve into ancient civilizations of the world, their history and culture through videogame techs and presentations. Few battles have ever so determined history like the battle of Gaugamela or Arbela (331 BC). My historical machinima is based on the actual historical battle, sourced by different historians. There are still debates on original number of Persians, some exaggerated as far as a million. The Achaemenid army would have been huge, from all corners of the empire - including excellent cavalry from Persia, Scythia, Bactria, Sogdiana, Indus/Sindh. The infantry were decently armored with variety of weapons - axes, swords, and spears. On the other hand the Macedonian army was much smaller, although large enough - 47,000 men. The cream of Macedon - 9000 phalanx pikemen in a 500 man formation called "lochoi" armed with a 4-6 m sarissa pike which was devastating at the front, plus 3000 hypaspists, and several thousands of allied Greek, Thracian, Phyrgian infantry, + slingers and peltasts from the same. In 331 BC the forces of the Persian Achaemenids, numbering 80-100000 men were assembled by Darius who saw Alexander's eastward expansion and met him at Gaugamela. Macedon is determined to conquer Persia, for the hegemony of Asia, and the realisation of a world conquest was almost in Alexander's hands.
