I was pleased to see Sir Peter De La Billiere the British General playing Hannibal managed to sucker his American counterpart playing Alexander into exposing his infantry flank and then crushed it with his cavalry.

The American attempted to counter this with a desperatye cavalry charge led by Alexander himself which only managed to get Alexander killed.

There was some nice demonstrations of period weaponry including the sarrissa which according to the programme was used two-handed and under arm and apparently macedonian infantry wore padded linen armour.
