Not the Britons, disappointingly I’d have liked to go fully Reverse-Caesar and this is the one area where I feel let down by this DLC. Playable factions include Rome, Suebi, and two Gaulish factions. If you do not enjoy fighting against lots of Gauls you will hate this because most of the factions on the map are, unsurprisingly, Gauls. The map is the most Shogun II-esque in terms of providing choke-point geography and interesting routes.Ĭaesar in Gaul is small in scale in terms of faction variety as well it’s Romans versus Gauls with a smattering of Britons and Germans. The smaller scale makes the map very intimate, and each new advance feels like a good step forward. The victory requirements are low at only 28 cities for victory instead of the more usual 50. The map comprises of around 50 cities in total, so it’s more than capable of portraying the geography of the area. The map is a very zoomed-in version of France with a bit of Germany, Italy and Britain on the edges. This is the smallest scale out of all of those available. Here’s a brief run-down of them all, in order of release.Ĭaesar in Gaul is my current favourite out of the Rome II campaigns which I have played. I have seen a lot of people asking about the various DLC campaigns for Total War: Rome II lately. Rome II has smartened up considerably since its release the article below discusses its add-on campaigns.
