'It was a battle of columns rather than lines.' (Loeb translation)
Literally, 'Columns fought rather than lines.'
Agmina magis quam acies pugnant.
'It was a battle of columns rather than lines.' (Loeb translation)
Literally, 'Columns fought rather than lines.'

And do as adversaries do in law, -
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
