Second Battle of Clusium
The second battle of Clusium took place during Sulla’s Second Civil War. Forces under the future triumvir Pompey defeated[1] a 30,000[2] strong force under Carrinas, Brutus Damasippus and Marcius Censorinus,[1][3] killing 20,000 of them.[3] After the battle the defeated army largely dissolved, with many soldiers going home.[3] All three defeated commanders escaped and took their remaining forces to the Samnites, who had declared for them.[3]
