Horace lost his family estate when, as he claimed, he threw away his weapons and ran from this battle . In the first stage, one army lay astride the Via Egnatia to the west of town, its position being partly protected by a marsh. Though Octavian's wing was pushed off the battlefield and forced to hide in a marsh, Cassius' forces lost their camp to an attack by Antony. Three weeks later, Brutus return to face the combined forces of Antony and Octavian and was crushed. For 10 points, name this battle where Caesar's assassins got their come-uppance.
