Description

The forces of Julius Caesar put the Greek city-state of Massilia under siege. Massilia is equipped with mighty defenses and its people are determined to resist the Roman war machine. To overcome these defenses, the legions will need to utilize all their ancient engineering skills to build truly incredible siege-works. For months this siege is waged on land and sea as the Romans build ever more complex siege works and the clever Massiliotes break out every trick in the book to frustrate the Romans.
