Is there such a thing as a list of the numbers of each type of troop at Gaugamela? For example: how many Bactrian cavalry? How many Scythians? etc. I have books by Green and Dodge, but I cannot find a list of troops and the numbers for each troop type. Perhaps such a thing does not exist. Has anyone even tried to make a reasonable estimate?

Also, I am seeking recommendations for a good English translation of Arrian.
