Unelli Revolt

Column 4 of 8 on the campaign map: Armorica and Aquitania, 56 BC

From the legate


56 BC. Viridovix gathers the Unelli and Lexovii to drive every Roman out of this region. Desperate brigands from all along the coast join his warband against Sabinus and his camp. If your cohorts give up this village, our isolated garrison will be butchered without mercy.

The briefing as the game gives it, before the battle.

The battlefield

Every new campaign generates this battlefield from its own seed: the same map for every retry, a new one for the next campaign.

  • An enemy camp. A Gallic camp hides in the woods at the edge of the field and is found mid-battle. Until it burns it sends raiders at the houses and its own wave; its veteran guards never leave it. The battle is won only once it has burned.

You will face

    Ranged
