Britain, AD 44. The Second Legion presses its campaign against Caratacus, but failures of command expose Roman soldiers to unnecessary losses. Cato’s conflict with the reckless cohort commander Maximius becomes dangerous when blame for a disastrous action must be assigned. Macro tries to protect his men while maintaining discipline, and the campaign shows that incompetence and ambition within the legion can be as lethal as the British enemy.
