The emperor Tiberius is rarely given any credit for his military abilities, but in reality he was one of Rome’s better generals. He was not in any historically important battles, remember he lived during the Pax Romana. He did lead a force along with Marcus Agrippa to negotiate and if necessary fight to recover the standards that the Parthians had captured from Crassus and Marc Antony. He led a force into Armenia and settled matters there. He was then set to Transalpine Gaul and won the battle of Raetia. Augustus also used him in the trouble sports in Pannonia and in Germany.
