- I've retrieved more of my ancient collection and have been really looking forward to putting these on the board. The Late Roman Empire has some very interesting and varied possibilities for conflict, and Hail Caesar lets me get a game set up and done in good time.
The Goth invasion/extended holiday of Gaul is a fascinating backdrop for wargaming in its own right, as the Romans fight a kind of counter-insurgency on their own territory. Even facing the embarrassment of having thousands of Germanic raiders looting an Imperial province at leisure, Roman Commanders had to deal with their own political enemies whilst trying to muster forces sufficient to defeat the invaders.
Models primarily Gripping Beast, with some Footsore Miniatures and a couple of Wargames Foundry for good measure. Rules by Warlord Games. Scenery from various sources.

Fantastic battle report. Hope you do more Hail Caesar.
Great job on the batrep, I like how you added the narrative to it.
Thanks very much!
Saved by the cavalry! An interesting game. A nice table of terrain and figures.
Cheers! Lockdown painting project.
Best Hail Caesar report ive watched, thank you.
Great battle report. Good forces and nice figures. Excellent stuff.
Thanks I rather like the models and it's much easier to collect them nowadays.
Nice report, love HC. It has inspired me to get mine out again. Keep em coming.
It's just so easy and flows well. Hope you do get your figures out again, it's what they're for.
Love your work mate. One of the best battle reports i've seen. Hope to see some more soon.
Well that's a very nice thing to say! Cheers!
Just found your channel and subbed. Nice video. I'm just painting up Romans and Gauls from Victrix. Yours are excellent.
Awesome! Thank you!
A nice looking game with beautiful figures!
Thanks very much!
An excellent report though the camera moves too fast imho...
Thanks very much. Yes, in my subsequent games I tried to keep it steadier. I think I tired myself out in that one!

Nice game buddy, the camera is a bit fast sometimes, ;-)
Hello, I have a question regarding the rules for gathering troops. For example, in the book of armies for the Middle Ages in the Mongols section, it is indicated that 50% of the units should be horse archers. Does that mean I have to spend half of my points on a set of horse archers, or have half of my entire army as horse archers?
It's 50% of the number of units, not the points amount. But I use these as guidelines rather than absolute rules when I set up games.
@@Shieldwall100 thanks
Why you kept the roman unit lingering there and let the other unit be charged and flanked? Seem the romans had the most incompetent commander in the field!
