Character information
|
Hannibal Barca is the historical commander of the Carthaginian army during the Second Punic War and, along with Scipio Africanus, one of the two opposing main characters in the Ad Astra: Scipio to Hannibal manga series.
Modus operandi
Hannibal's battle strategies are based on a combination of envelopment tactics and use of the terrain to his advantage. By using natural formations to hide his troops or trap the opposing army, Hannibal is able to envelop and overcome vastly superior numbers. He also has a firm grasp on human emotions and is skilled in manipulating them in his favor, whether to inspire people to fight on his side or to incite fear and panic on his enemies.
