    As a commander Cassius was pretty competent, after the horrid disaster at Carrhae he led part of the remaining army back into roman territory and defended it for a while from further attacks from the Parthians, at that moment he was just a quaestor which was a relatively low rank in the political order, it was a show of determination and leadership under very trying circumstances. Now is important to mention he did not face the same great parthian general that was responsible of the victory at Carrhae but he still was facing a very superior force with very limited resources.

    It is completely and utterly incomprehensible, how out of touch the late Republican Senate was in this time. The Romans had lived in fear of the Gauls for 3.5 centuries and Caesar conquered it {which to be perfectly clear, he did with methods that in modern terms would be considered genocide against the Senone tribe, which sacked Rome in early 4th century B.C.E.}. His soldiers had not only marched on Rome, but fought (and won) a civil war for Caesar - against their fellow Romans. But Caesar was also their best general, on his way to fight a war with the Parthians, to retrieve the lost Aquilae (Eagle Standards) from Carrhae. And the Senate thought after they murdered the man who not only did that, but also stood the best chance of them regaining the honour. That the legions would turn *on Caesar's son* for the same people who had Caesar twice beaten in the Civil War and both times gave up an easy victory over Caesar because of the "Republican values", which literally cost all of them their lives.
