Rome Total War German Chronicles 10: Advancing Toward Italy



This battle is important because I was very early in the Campaign. The more Gaul my army could kill, the less would defend the cities in North Italy. That's why I took a chance to engage the enemies while outnumber.

On the Tactical level this battle shows the effectiveness of concentrating your army like a hammer head against the center of the enemy army. When their center Broke the tricky part came. You need to hold one flank while you concentrate half the infantry and all of your cavalry on a flank, leading to a total panic. Note that Screaming Women allows your troops to have a morale boost allowing them the better hold the line against more enemies without panicking.
