Emerita Augusta
Republic Campaign - mission 5 (military)
Start date: February 101 BC
Map size: Medium (384x384)
Region: Southern Europe
Introduction
The Hispanian province of Lusitania is the next stop in securing Rome's western border. Governor, you are to found a colony at Emerita Augusta and subdue the native Celtic and Gaulish tribes. Exploit local resources to build a defensible city as well as to outfit your cohorts.
Be warned that the native barbarians have a history of raiding Roman industry in the province. Furthermore, we have obtained some interesting information from a few of the more civilized locals. It turns out that a bag full of denarii is sometimes all that is needed to convince someone of the benefits of Roman rule. The information indicates that a tribal war leader has tired of raiding and is instead gathering a larger army to try to drive Rome out of Lusitania entirely. They say forewarned is forearmed, so arm some recruits, fortify the city, and send a prayer or two to Mars.
