Exactly. What were Hannibals tactics but gureilla warefare and unexpected attacks on his enemy.. faking strength /out flanking and cutting off enemy lines.

Fabian knew he had to come the same way. In fact he learnt a great deal from Hannibal.

Apparently according to the programme I was watching Hannibals real mistake was that he never sacked Rome when he had the chance. Or wasnt allowed to by his leaders.
