Post Second Punic War battle help
#3
Thanks for the information. I think one of the best direct quotes I have come across is from Josephus who showed no happiness at all when the Jewish rebels destroyed the first legion on the scene. It must have been pretty well known in the ancient world that beating Rome once on the battlefield just meant you were going to suffer an even bigger response in return.
