You don't seem to understand the measure of their Won, anon.

They. Have. WON.

>>54540430
It was a pretty good war, as far as war's went, except for all the dying

>>54545397
>>54545442
Not >>54545427
and half-polish, so understand how important their Won is
but Won what?
Against the Nazis and the Soviets?
Against the Swedes?
Against the Prussian King, the Austrian König und Kaiser, and the Russian Tsar?

WHAT HAVE WE WON?!

>the PCs are stuck in Italy, with counter-marching to deny Hanibal an opportunity to take any city.

>>54540430
Had Hannibal managed to have his army meet up with his brother's he might have been able to win.

I fought in the Punic War, it wasn't very humerus when I lost an arm.

>>54540430
How do you pronounce punic? Is it pew-nick or pun-ick?

>>54552067
Punick probably, that's how its pronounced in Spanish a latin Language.

>>54552067
Pew-nick like punitive.

>>54552144

>>54552144
English isn't a latin or romance language though, so >>54552169
is the correct english pronunciation (at least it's not poo-nick like a German would say it in english)

>>54554949
The second punic war and it's stragems are still studied by armies.
>>54554824
The Romans spoke latin and named the wars?

>>54555044
>The Romans spoke latin and named the wars?
In latin
Not in english
And latin pronunciation is different from english pronunciation

Example: latin always pronounces C as K, in english it depends on the case

Therefore it's wrong to assume you pronounce the translated the same as the original

I mean, you don't pronounce beer like the German Bier or the French bière
