Quote:Sertorious was one of the best military minds in Roman history. I have no doubt he'd given for example Scipio Africanus, Scipio Aemilianus, Marius, Sulla, Lucullus, Caesar or Agrippa etc. a good match any given day. Pompeius just was not very good to adapt and thus was quite helpless vs. Sertorius.
Yes he was good, no doubt.
But Caesar beat Pompey! Pompey was a great administrator/organizer,
but ws beaten by Caesar, who was no light weight in any skill required by a Roman General!
Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.
