Alexandrian Imperial (by Larry Essick)

 

I have used many variations on this army with good success over the years.  Here is a relatively straight-forward list that I found works well.

 

Alexander

 1 x Reg Kn(F) CinC

 5 x Reg Kn(F)

 3 x Irr Lh(O)

 3 x Irr Lh(F)

 8 x Reg Pk(S)

 2 x Irr El(O)

 22 EE/Break 8

 

Perdiccas

 1 x Reg Kn(F) SG

 1 x Irr Lh(O)

 8 x Reg Pk(O)

 8 x Irr Ax(S)

 2 x Reg Ps(S)

 2 x Reg Ps(O)

 20 EE/Break 7

 

Craterus

 1 x Reg Kn(F) SG

 2 x Irr Lh(O)

 16 x Reg Pk(O)

 19 EE/Break 7

 

For deployment purposes Perdiccas's command is the same size as Alexanders.  It goes down first covering one flank, preferably near terrain.  In the center goes Craterus with Alexander on the other flank.  This army differs from the Alexandrian Macedonian in that Alexander's command is the main strike command.  All of the Pk form up beside each other (across all the commands) with the 2 x El forming an anchor on one end.  The Lh, particularly the Lh(F), are used very aggressively and supported by the Kn(F).  Care must be taken to not lose all the (F) troops.
