These Reinforcements can be rotated to the front of the line, grinding down a wearied enemy with fresh ranks of Roman troops. However, this deep formation risks being flanked and so you must protect the flanks of your army with Equites and your Italian allies.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlthough Carthage’s army is primarily composed of mercenaries such as Libyan Foot and Spanish Scutarii, these men are personally loyal to Hannibal and the glory he brings them in victory. He has the Foresight to see the enemy’s plan before arraying his own coalition of Libyans, Spanish, Numidian, and Gallic soldiers for battle.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Second Punic War is fully compatible with Battleground products, both Fantasy and Historical.
