So how would events play out if Antiogne is defeated by Eumenes. Could we see Polyperchon instead of Cassander as King of Macedonia. Could we see Eumenes as the Asian ruler rather than Antiognes? How would events play out.
I thought he was just Alexander's secretary. Secretary of War sounds a bit... modern?
With Polyperchon as the victor maybe Alexander IV is not murdered by Cassander?
The obvious thought is that the longer the empire survives united, the higher the chance that eventually Alexander IV can rule in his own name.
Eumenes knew as a Greek he really couldn't hope to become a ruler himself. That's why he attached himself to the Perdiccans and the Argaead house. So if he defeats Antigonus, which he very well could (and probably should have), then I can see Alexander IV coming out of this alive and controlling whatever Eumenes won for him.
interestign what ramifcations would this have on the selucids and ptolmys and the later diaodachi wars.
