Alexander the Great's Diadochi

It is 323 BCE, and the Macedonian Empire is in chaos. Alexander the Great is dead with no clear successor, risking a succession crisis over the vast lands he has conquered. The claimants to Alexander’s lands, known as the Diadochi, are conferring at Babylon to attempt to diplomatically resolve the crisis and avoid a war. Will the Diadochi peacefully resolve Alexander’s succession and expand Alexander’s legacy through new conquests, or will Macedon descend into war?
