Germania Inferior, AD 69. The Batavian Revolt erupts along the Rhine as Julius Civilis and his allies exploit Rome’s civil war. Former auxiliaries who once served the empire now lead an assault against the forts and legions that guarded the frontier.

Roman survivors fall back to the Old Camp while Batavian commanders test whether local anger can become a broader war of liberation. The centurions are forced to choose between army, tribe and personal loyalty as the frontier collapses into siege warfare.
