Telamon actually isn't that bad if you know how to use barbarian units to their maximum: Chosen Swords can handily shred pre-Marian Roman infantry with proper positioning, and the enemy force at the rear typically moves quite slowly, giving you time to set up an ambush in the woods once you've dispersed their vanguard. Maximizing morale penalties with war cry and the dogs, and using your barbarian nobles and spear warband to quickly destroy the Roman cavalry will help you keep most of your army intact for the second stage of the engagement. Then move your infantry and skirmishers to the forest, and draw the Romans out with your remaining cavalry. Sandwich the second Roman army between the two and you should be golden.
Hey man great vid. Let's just say I have something similar in terms of this as a small project I too wanna post all historical intros. Not going to copy you mate, I will do it in my own style - but I wanted to let you know anyway - apologies! I can't reveal the nature of my project but it's very similar to this. Please note I am not copying you that isn't my style, I will edit in a way that's my own style :)
Always loved these cinematic, loved their marching and the formations.

I like to recreate these scenarios in Rome 2 custom battles and it's pretty fun.
