Hasdrubal, son of Hanno

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. I see his 3 battles mentioned witn inline cites, but this sentence needs a cite to confirm there were four set piece battles: Panormus was the fourth and final set piece battle of the war.

- Hi Yoninah, I was relying on "Only four set piece land battles took place during the 23 years of the war; Hasdrubal took part as a general in three of them.[1]" from "Name", but that sentence is now cited. And thanks for pointing out that I had missed citing it! Gog the Mild (talk) 12:25, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
