165.123.179.xxx, whoever you are, I want to thank you for creating an outline for the page. It's much easier to fill articles in than start them off, and this was fun to do.
To those who edit the page, a note about the battle of Zama - the tactical description given is correct. Often one sees the claim that the Carthaginians fell into the same trap they had created at Cannae, something that I think even appears in some Roman sources, but this is quoted not so much because it happened as because it makes a neat story. IMO, the real version is dramatic enough.
All right! The real Cunctator, basking in glory. ---

Should it be mentioned that the Roman's were rotten tacticians? They relied on an frontal assault and the superior quality of their soldiers for victory. So Hannibal's retreating the centre and attacking from the wings was an obvious tactic?
