Counterpoint: Second Punic War. Can't be worse than the shit Hannibal was up to.

I mean, Hannibal routed the Romans in the battles. He just couldn't stop the stupid bastards from coming back for more after a month or two.

In 9 CE, the Germans under Arminius' command obliterated the 3 Roman Legions of Varus and thus, put an end on the Roman plan of conquering Germania magna.
