Desc: The Senate has called upon you as a veteran general for service. They wish to establish a fortified camp north of Mediolanum to defend the foothills of the Alps against invaders from Gaul that will use the mountain passes into Italy. Roman engineers have already built the ramparts for this new camp and have laid its road system around a small spring, the only water source in the area. The Senate will supply you with a large treasury in order to build the camp rapidly. Build your defenses well. Since there is no farmland in the area Rome will supply the camp with wheat. You will not need to build granaries, farms or markets. But the area is rich in iron and timber. The Senate suggests that you build the weapons needed to recruit six legions for duty against the Gauls and for foreign duty when called. You are allowed to trade in weapons, iron and furniture with Capua and Massilia as long as you fulfill any requests for weapons or timber made by the Senate.
This will be your only source of income since people on active service do not pay taxes and therefore no forums are available. Since it is a camp, there will be no need for entertainment except theaters to keep your men from becoming too bored when off duty. Besides wolf hunting is said to be a popular entertainment in the area. But place great emphasis on the health of your men.
"Storms are brewing in the Mediterranean general. Our old enemy Carthage weighs heavily on our minds. Can we depend upon you to do your duty for the Republic?"
