Fabian Roman
Not just the armies of Fabius Maximus, known to history as the Delayer, but the majority of those generals who faced Hannibal in Italy, dying, or living, to hold the ring until the War Against Hannibal could be won elsewhere.
Fabius was particularly successful by showing control and using terrain. Others thought they knew better.
"To be turned from one's course by men's opinions, by blame, and by misrepresentation shows a man unfit to hold an office."
Quintus Fabius Maximus, from Plutarch's Lives
