I do not know of any such maps, but I would love to see them if they exist. Adrian Goldsworthy shows diagrams of battles bsaed on ancient sources, whcih are very useful, and quite interesting. if you're jsut looking for how the battles played out, his books are good (esp. cannae). His analyzations of battles are great, because they show some misconceptions about battels and prove them wrong (like cannae and the whole half moon thing.) I hope others have more information regarding this.

Greece and Rome at War - Peter Connolly contains a series of maps illustrating Hannibals campaign, although they're not exhaustive.

 

yeah I've got both peter connelly books and Adrian Goldsworthy books it for the game rome total war this is what I've made so far it's not perfect but I can't get it much better

What about the routes taken by different parties? does anyone have anything like that. For all of the punic wars I 'd love to have a path by path breakdown of each side.
