Carthage (Hannibal at the Gates) Diplomacy Tier 5

Local Knowledge

The advantage of Carthage's reliance on an array of mercenaries and tributary armies was that local knowledge and unique skills were incorporated directly into Hannibal's war effort. In allying with the Gallic Celts to the north of Rome, for instance, Hannibal learned about the regional topography and used it to his advantage during the campaign - evading destruction at Roman hands on more than one occasion. Furthermore, in battle, the unique fighting styles and tribal idiosyncrasies of his army's different elements made it unique and unpredictable to the Romans; their culturally diverse fighting styles ultimately making it more difficult for Rome to fight back effectively.
