I fully agree with what Cornelius Saturninus and Verginius have said, one thing, however, worries me. I would like the exact details of what we're up against, up to the last Carthaginian Peasant. Is there any chance we could order our agents to infiltrate the Carthaginian troop recruiting settlements? Or for that matter all the settlements which we hope to take ?

I'm of the opinion that we aren't using our agents enough and to their maximum ability. We should sabotage their military buildings and temples, take out their generals and captains before a fight, and make our spies brief us of our enemies strength and troop location. Spying, Sabotage and assassination may not be the most honorable way to wage a war, but if we put our Roman agents to work who knows how many lives we could save ?
