  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope St. Marcellus I
Marcellus divided the territorial administration of the Church into twenty-five districts (tituli), appointing over each a presbyter, who saw to the preparation of the catechumens for baptism and directed the performance of public penances.
Marcellus, there is still a clear historical tradition in support of his declaration that the ecclesiastical administration in Rome was reorganized by this pope after the great persecution.
Marcellus died shortly after leaving Rome, and was venerated as a saint.

 The Internet Classics Archive | Marcellus by Plutarch
Marcellus, highly indignant, accused the man in the senate: where he, having appealed to the tribunes of the people, endeavoured by various shifts and exceptions to elude the impeachment; and, when the tribunes refused their protection, by flat denial rejected the charge.
Marcellus, because his men were few, that they might not be encompassed and charged on all sides by the enemy, extended his wings of horse, and, riding about, drew out his wings of foot in length, till he came near to the enemy.
Marcellus, therefore, taking with him his colleague Crispinus, and his son, a tribune of soldiers, with two hundred and twenty horse at most (among whom there was not one Roman, but all were Etruscans, except forty Fregellans, of whose courage and fidelity he had on all occasions received full proof), goes to view the place.

 Roman Emperors - DIR Marcellus
After Procopius' defeat at Nacolia and execution (27 May 366), the victorious Valens captured Marcellus and, enraged at the discovery of imperial regalia passed to Marcellus by Procopius, liquidated him along with his followers, friends, relatives, and any suspected of withholding information (4.8.3-5).
Ammianus (26.10.1-5), who gives Marcellus the rank of protector and notes the important factor of his kinship with Procopius, puts Marcellus in command of the garrison of Nicaea at the time of Procopius' defeat and death.
According to Ammianus, two factors motivated this usurpation: Marcellus' belief in his ability to purchase the continued support of Procopius' Gothic allies for a representative of the Neo-Flavian Dynasty, and his ignorance of events in Illyricum, by which Ammianus presumably means the investment of Philippopolis by an army under Valens' Magister Militum per Illyricum Equitius.

 The Baldwin Project: Our Young Folks' Plutarch by Rosalie Kaufman
Marcellus had a small army compared with that of the enemy, and as soon as they saw him approaching and observed this fact, they felt so certain of being able to crush him with very little trouble that, without giving his men time for rest or refreshment, they immediately began an attack.
Marcellus was very angry with the soldier who committed such a shameful deed, for he was always gentle, humane, and just even to his enemies, and in this respect set an example to his men which he could not excuse them for failing to observe.
Marcellus had built a temple out of the Sicilian spoils, which he now desired to dedicate to Honor and Virtue, but the priests would not consent to having two deities in one temple, because, they said, in case it should be struck by lightning they would not know to which to offer their sacrifices.

 Marcus Claudius Marcellus
When Marcellus was recalled by the Romans to the war in their home territories, he carried back with him the greater part and the most beautiful of the dedicatory offerings in Syracuse, that they might grace his triumph and adorn his city.
After this success, Marcellus could have celebrated a third triumph, but he declined because "something still remained to be done in Sicily and a third triumph would awaken jealousy", as Plutarch says.

Both sides can expect non-negative results more often than not (which means it's worth trying personal combat), but neither side can really afford to have their leader killed (which means its not worth trying personal combat).
Without Marcellus, the Romans will be unable to use line commands, which makes the situation difficult given their fewer units and mediocre initiative ratings.
