Wow, It was as in slaughterhouse below the Syracuse wals:) I hatte the fight in the steets!!! Who was the ally at the battle ram? Which faction?

I newer send Praetor or Consul to the battle. He is there only for commandig of the troops. I only use Tribun or Legat for leading the cavalery to the battle.

I always deploy the army very carefully, good formation is the ground. But I could say that I am sometimes a little bit rasty and underestimate the enemy force on the strategy map and send my army so deep in enemy territory. Then I am surrounded sometimes and my army is totaly devastated as Varus in Teuton Wood:)
