Caesar iv corduba
Likewise, I would regard Fabius' failure to cut off Hannibal and his army at the Ager Falernus and Pompeius' failure to catch Sertorius and his men in Clunia as defeats. I think, for the sake of consistency, I will change Caesar's tally to have Brundisium as a defeat, since his primary objective was catching Pompeius and his army, which he failed to achieve. For a courier it was not too hard as the expected routes were planned ahead of time. The use of couriers was to track down individual formations in the field or special cross country messengers, where naturally there were no semaphore lines, and no pigeons could find them. A system that was still in use by 1855 when it was phased out in favor of the electrical telegraph. It was copied and built across Europe in the years after the Napoleonic Wars. Furthermore by 1812 the French army would make use of a mobile telegraph line that could be taken on campaign. The French semaphore system was one of the most efficient on the planet and could send information across France in about an hour. So while on campaign Napoleon could literally receive information from France and Italy in a few hours, then sent information in turn. To these were added telegraph lines in the Netherlands, and as far as Mainz in Germany. Even building a tower large enough that could transmit across the English Channel. In just about 40 days, Caesar had captured and eliminated the threat from Pompeys Spanish legions with barely a fight. Napoleon also had additional telegraphs built throughout the country and in 1804 prioritized a line that went to the coast at Boulogne and Calais. Unable to defend and unable to take the remaining men to Greece, Varro sent word to Caesar in Corduba that he would surrender. This eventually extended as far as Venice. This is practically forgotten but one of the first things Napoleon did by 1805 was set up a system of telegraph lines that went from Milan in Italy, all the way to Lyons in France and then to Paris, in preparation for the 1805 war. The French first operated these semaphore lines (both optical signals and flag signals) in the 1790's from Paris to Strasbourg and Brest. The really big one though is that Napoleon was actually using advanced telegraph lines. A primitive technology that was known since ancient times. Additionally there existed various signal towers which could signal codes to one another. They also used messenger pigeons to carry messages around known locations. Napoleon was obviously benefitting from more infrastructure and existing outposts along various routes. There is also a level editor available for the game.I don't know if Subutai could control an army in Poland while he was leading an army in Hungary.īut them being the same is not necessarily true.
In all these scenarios the rank that is used is " Quaestor". The last is only available for people who pre-ordered the game directly from Tilted Mill Entertainment. There are still five more scenarios that are sandboxes: Amida, Corduba, Cyrene, Djedu and Roma. The Kingdom part is a tutorial, while the Republic and Empire parts make up the campaign, where one can choose between peaceful and military assignments. The game is divided in three parts, named after the three traditional eras of Ancient Rome: " Kingdom", " Republic" and " Empire". To this end, Sierra Games did detailed research into Roman lifestyles using secondary sources and primary sources. In an attempt at historical realism, the game tries to stay as close to proper Roman lifestyles as possible. In addition, buildings and roads may be placed at 45 degree angles to the playing grid, as well as aligned with the grid, allowing game players more options in creating efficient and visually appealing city layouts. This means more realistic landscapes and city views, and the ability for players to better see and use game building space. In a departure from older versions in the series, Caesar IV is equipped with variable, realistic 3D instead of fixed, isometric 3D.
