I actually meant the Battle of telamon (the second Gallic expedition where the first ended in the sacking of Rome) it says so in the historic battle description1) 1) The Romans had a very impressive call-up system and could raise several legions in quick succession. It was common practice in the ancient world that if a battle was lost the victor was the winner, but the romans never gave up. I imagine that the Sack of Rome by the Celts was before the Romans learned this trait.
