			:::The biggest evidence against would be that Kassandra should technically be in prison at this time. Other evidence would that while Demosthenes was the historical leader of Athenian forces here, Lysander (who probably should not have been in the game at all) was not the leader of the Spartan forces, that instead being Brasidas. One can also argue that even though the descriptions say Megaris neither of the mission conquest battles happen there.

	I am inclined to be believe that this is meant to be the actual historical battle given that the mission description actually capitalizes the name. I propose that we address the game's portrayal in a legacy section where we talk about the circumstances with layla's animus and kassandra's dna. We can also address the timing and the fact that neither missions' battle actually takes place in Megaris.
