I know what Glenn is talking about. I, too, was playing as the Marian Romans against hannibal who was Carthage. I think I had 1 cohort rout and a few auxiliary troops and thats it. I was playing historical too, with one 1st cohort and 9 regular cohorts.

Although I won that battle, I proposed afterwards that no Romans be allowed. We both agreed. It was so one sided that even I, who won, found little enjoyment in it becasue it was so one sided.

Just something to consider.
