Emperor Claudius struggles to establish himself in the peoples and specifically in the eyes of the legions. He has recovered the final missing Eagle of Teutoberg, but he needs more.
King Verica begs help from his Roman overlords to end Togodumnus and Caratacus' usurpation of his lands and their blocking of trade with Rome.
Imperial Secretary Narcissus' power is aligned with the Emperor so if the Emperor falls so will he. Who would be stupid enough to volunteer to travel to Britannia and report back as a spy? He must have a military background, have served in Germania, be ruthless and expendable.
Four Legions travel to the coast in preparation of an invasion, but superstition rears its ugly head. They need their Emperor to lead them but someone else must act of his behalf, but who? 'Io Saturnalia' is the cry and the Saturnalicius princeps orders them to invade Britannia promising the Emperor will be there for the final victory.
Togodumnus and Caratacus gather the tribes at the first major river, The Medway, with superior numbers including chariots. Who will be the victor?
