I saw this when it first went up--which motivated me to research the warrior queen. Quite a story, no question. The consensus seems to be that she suffered from overconfidence (she and her army had destroyed towns and beaten Roman soldiers before) and poor battlefield strategic abilities. She no doubt was an effective and charismatic leader who underestimated the well-drilled, professional Roman Army.
