What a disastrous campaign...

[Quietus]

Tricky Lady,

If wish, you can read my Julii campaign primer in the RTW Guide section. A couple of things I can impart now is first, don't take on the Caralis mission until you have taken a significant portion of the Gaul territory. They will flood you you with stacks upon stacks of attacks. So, the best thing is thing is to cripple or limit their troop production capabilities first by taking away their towns.

Secondly, if you have to take on the Gauls badly outnumbered, use a bridge. What you do is put your army unit in the middle of the bridge. When you get attacked. You get to defend a bridge. I do this when i'm waiting for reinforcements and there is a stack ahead detected by my agents (diplomat and spy). It doesn't matter which side you are approached, you still get to defend the bridge

Did it now.

But "unfortunately" I've decided to obey the Senate and capture Caralis already (became a mission shortly after I conquered Padavium and Mediolanium). Now my army is marching to Narbo Martius.

Perhaps I should abandon Caralis and let it rebel?
