The Carthaginian campaign has become unusually dispersed. The stated operational principle is to fight concentrated while maneuvering dispersed. Dispersal can cover routes, reduce congestion, and position forces across a theater, while decisive combat rewards bringing strength together at the required point. Here the campaign violates that rule yet continues to win, making the moment both a strategic lesson and a critique of the scenario.
