ONUS! Triumviratus - Army XV Vercingetorix

You need the book Triumviratus and the base game ONUS! Traianus or ONUS! Pack to play the scenarios specific to this army -- You can use this box as a reinforcement for your copy of ONUS! in any other scenario.

Rome is in turmoil…

In 59 B.C. Gaius Iulius Caesar, Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus and Marcus Licinius Crassus, facing the intransigence of the Roman Senate towards their particular projects and ambitions, sealed an informal political pact commonly known as the First Triumvirate. Thus was born a “three-headed monster”, in Varron’s words, destined to change the course of the history of the Roman State.

Triumviratus is a versatile expansion of the ONUS! series that gives you the opportunity to take command of the armies of Gaius Iulius Caesar, Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, Marcus Licinius Crassus and the civitates of Gaul, as well as an extensive selection of entirely new allied and mercenary forces, to immerse yourself directly in the armed conflicts that changed the course of the history of Rome, Europe and the Middle East between 59 and 44 BC..

The army box of Vercingetorix offers the possibility of placing at the head of the best armies of Gaul – and of the Celtic world as a whole – those nobles and magistrates who fought most fiercely against the invasion of Iulius Caesar. Thus, Divico, leader of the Helvetii and first to confront the legions, Boduognatus, commander of the combined forces of the Belgians, who almost crushed the Romans in the battle of the Sabis River (57 BC) and, of course, the young, astute and brilliant arvernian noble Vercingetorix, able to unite and raise the whole of Gaul against Caesar in 52 BC, to the dismay of the Romans. With them come the cream of Gaul’s forces, from noble horsemen and Gallic aristocrats armed to the teeth, highly motivated druids or hardened Helvetian infantrymen, as well as bands of Gaesatai mercenaries and Gallic infantry… ready to send the Romans back to their pestilent and overcrowded city with a good kick in the ass!
