- Antony as a commander
- Tried to siege against Samosata but failed
- Cleopatra gave Antony 200 ships and money for the war against Octavian
- Keen to start a war with the Parthians
- Lost 800 men on a march
- Was too distracted by when he would next see Cleopatra to concentrate on war
- Delayed campaign with Medes for Cleopatra
- fast and large preparations for Actium
- Delayed the battle of Actium which gave Octavian prep time
- Before BoA, Antony had an island of partying, music, theatre, sacrifices etc
- Lost 25% of his army on route to Parthia
- Saw it as a victory as he did not get captured
- Deserted his own troops when going after Cleopatra
