Not helping Saguntum to be a roman mistake is highly argumentative. Rome was fighting against not only Illyrians but also against Gallic tribes at North Italy at the time. Roman peace time army was very small (4 double legions). At 219 BC Romans probably did not have any troops left to sent to Saguntum. (Ilpars (talk) 14:31, 3 January 2012 (UTC))Reply


The whole "aftermath" section is firstly, wrong (as in - not supported by the primary sources), and secondly, speculation. Should probably be deleted. Micax (talk) 09:25, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
