Very much the same. The main thing is to get your general back as fast as possible. Battle is equal, so the loss of the leader almost always means defeat.
The rest is nothing special. Wide variety of units (chariots, elephants, cavalry, phalanx, archers) makes this paper-rock-scissors type of battle. If you use all your units against appropriate enemy units, you win.
My usual way: lure enemy's cavalry into phalanx, send elephants to cut a way into Egyptian lines, part of my cavalry- send against archers, another part of cavalry- chase away Egyptian chariots. After that, march in a thin line with phalanx and finish off wat is left. Seleucid missile troops are not very useful in this battle. I use them only to make AI focus it's attention on some spot, while cavalry flanks them.
