What battle plan does Cassius propose?

Answer 1

Cassius wants to wait where they are so that they are nicely rested and fully energized while Antony's troops would come tired. The battle would then be won by them.

On the other hand, Brutus feels that they should march to Antony. This is because the people living in that area were only on their side as they were forced to be. Thus, if Antony marched towards them, they would not be able to recruit many people on the way making their army very big and unbeatable. Also, they would be well refreshed.

In the end, it was Brutus' plan that was chosen.

Answer 2

Brutus is the one that made the plan to meet at Philippi to battle Antony's and octavious' armies. Cassius points out the flaws to this plan but Brutus insists and this plan is the plan that they stuck. Cassius wanted to wait and let the battle come to them. Hope this helped:)

Answer 3

Both Cassius and Brutus died at the battle of Philippi in Greece in 42 BC, which they fought against the forces of Octavian (later he was called Augustus) and Mark Antony. In the first battle, Cassius, believing (wrongly) that his forces had suffered a crushing defeat, ordered his freedman to kill him. In the second battle, the forces of Brutus were routed. Brutus managed to flee to the hills with four legions. Because he knew that with his army defeated he would be captured, he committed suicide.

Answer 4

Cassius wants to wait and let Antony and Octavius' powers to come attack first. However, Brutus wants to attack first, for he believes they will get an advantage doing it his way. In the end, they decide to follow out Brutus' battle plans.

Answer 5

Brutus feels he is killing Caesar for the benefit of Rome, and Cassius is in it out of jealousy of Caesar's powers.

Answer 6

Cassius wants to kill Caesar because of his jealousy of Caesar's power, and Brutus feels that killing Caesar will benefit Rome.
