I completed my Casse Campaign in 212 and I must say it was great, my only regret was that I did not take full advantage of their great roster and I did not get to see the two handed champions in action or the many types of goidilic troops, mostly a healthy diet of batacorii, cwmyr, iaosatae, gaeroas, botroas and leuce epos or curepos and after the reforms i switched the generals bodyguards to rycalawre which are just a joy to behold, whoever skinned them did a marvelous job also the calawre and milnaht look great too, I love the blue body paint.
A few pictures:
The map:
and the victory screen:
The bridge where if I'll fight again I'll puke:
This bridge is where for the last 10 years i held the romani off by cycling a couple of generals every year or so in order to keep them supplied and used the massilian hoplites and iphikratos phalanx mercs and golberi curoas to box legion after legion as they tried to cross. While my troops pressed on into the Sweboz pushing them eastward and my greek allies fought them in the south, also the last aedui province allied with the romanii, but they didn't seem to give them access through the passes in the Alps as they kept trying to cross only through Massilia.
I sort of felt like I was cheating getting all those heroic victories because the AI sucks at bridge battles, near the bridge there was a ford, but they never crossed there i always took my cavalry over the river to get behind them when their army dwindled to a size which I could engage with my cavalry.
I was allied to Carthage but in the turn I got my victory they betrayed and attacked Velike, a half stack waited close by to crush them but I won... so they'll live.
I just felt I needed to share this.
A big thank you to the entire team for making this wonderful game, it's much more than a mod it's a new game![]()
