This battle actually occurred in real life. The siege of Syracuse (214-212 B.C.) saw the Greek kingdom of Syracuse overwhelmed by Roman invaders during the Second Punic War. The defense of Syracuse was assisted by the famous inventor, Archimedes, who burned attacking Roman ships with sunlight focused from parabolic mirrors. The defeat of Syracuse not only resulted in the death of Archimedes, but also ensured that Syracuse's ally, Carthage, could not get a foothold in Sicily from which it could menace Rome.
