In order for Craterus to cross the Hellespont with his ten thousand troops to assist Antipater against the Greek rebellion, he needs Cleitus the White to wipe out Athens' navy.
Once that's accomplished, Craterus and Antipater wipe out Athens' army.
And Athens, for centuries a major regional power, is effectively wiped out in terms of being a player in the future of Greek affairs.

The Music: We want to get down on our knees and worship the amazing and talented composer who offered us the use of one of his amazing tracks, “Hero”, as our theme music: Jofre Horta. He's already a big deal in the composing world but he's going to be even bigger – and you can say you heard him first on our little show! Listen to his whole album on Spotify or iTunes.
