Alexander made a reconnaissance in person of the enemy's strength and dispositions and, despite the eagemess of most of his generals, he decided against a night attack. Instead, he retired to his tent to
devise his strategy. He ordered his troops to be well fed and then to rest. Darius, on the other hand,
mindful of Alexander's unpredictable manoeuvres, ordered his army to stand to throughout the night in
readiness for a surprise attack. It is certain that the alertness of one side and the fatigue of the other
played at least some part in the outcome of the battle next day."
-Anthony Livesey
