Pelopnnesian War, Brasidas? (1 Viewer)

[Some Guy]

Hi everyone, I have an oral on monday about 'Brasidas' raid on the Megarid and account for his failure to take it'

I've read Book 4.66-74 of Thucydides but i dont understand! The outcome was a sucess, so wheres the failure? Or is there another battle/conflict in the Megarid which has to do with Brasidas as well? Thanks

:worried:

how unfortunate, u scored the same topic as me... i think that the failure is just that they revolted in Megara, but it doesnt seem to be very clear... and there is nowhere near enough info for the 5minute speech, theres only like 3 pages of thucydides on it...
