"Antigonos may send him some of his cavalrymen, but you will not receive any of his infantry, nor will you get any from Pella. He does not have so many men himself that he can just up and give them all away on a whim, and Pella barely have enough to garrison itself. Are you forgetting that we still haven't achieved peace with Pyrrhos? And that barbarians may still come from the north? Would you have us leave Makedonia defenceless?
Nay, I say. The mines of Makedonia bring in a great deal of our money, and we must not lose it. I will not have it risked foolishly, and Korinthos would be the lesser loss. Have Alexandros know that he should focus on the Spartans and if peace is struck with Pyrrhos, I believe Antigonos will deal with Athens himself. Until then you will have to make do with what you have, just like the rest of us do."
(OOC: I will answer your letter, mini, but I don't have time now.)
