Fire! arrows rained upon the invaders. Hun after Hun fell, trying in vain to advance further into Greek land. From a high hill, a distance away from the battle, Alexander watched it unfold. So far he liked what he saw.
The Huns, trained they were, just could not muster the manpower. Greek spearmen and swordsmen pushed the line, breaking the Huns line into smaller pieces. With the Hun Battalion vulnerable, heavy infantry moved back and archers rained there arrows. Slingshots, invented by the Greek ally Rome, also contributed.
Falling rapidly, the Huns broke into retreat and headed towards a small town nearby. The Greek force followed right behind, not allowing the Huns to hole up in the town.
At this point, Alexander too trotted far behind both armies, wanting to see the rest. He found another sizeable hill and sat, watching.
By that time, the Greeks had chased the Huns fully into the city, and fighting began again. Along the main street of the town, there was a bloody battle in which neither side seems to be able to gain on the other. Then, out comes the militia. From behind, they slay over 20 Huns before they are even noticed, but by then its too late.
Today was a day for Greece.
