The next episode of the Germania campaign occurs a few years after the Teutoburger Wald disasters. The disaster of Teutoburger Wald was decisive insofar as it drove the Romans back over the Rhine. The German tribe lacked the capacity to follow up and were satisfied with their autonomy. Despite a few forays by Tiberius, the Romans stayed behind safety of the Rhine. They were profoundly shocked by Varus’s defeat , and the Empire could not spare the resources to mount a major invasion into German territory. Both sides therefore watched each other warily from relative comfort
Germanicus , the great nephew of Augustus, lead the Roman retaliation into Germany in 14AD. Germanicus advanced with caution that might have saved Varus had he adopted the same methods. He made sure that this route was scouted and that his flank and rear were supported at all times. In spring of 15AD he pushed into Chatti territory. He captured and burnt their capital and dispersed the survivors
The first scenario is a fanciful recreation of recapturing the eagle of the XIXth.
Game wise is everyone happy to stick with Fog:AM, or move back to HC?
What I’ll attempt to do this time is publish all the scenario rules so folks can digest them beforehand. The anguish of the random event from Thursdays game not to be repeated
I’m looking at perhaps 8th January for people to recover, as I imagine December being busy
Thoughts ?
