Invaders also come from the outside — they will

most likely make straight for your City and try to

conquer it.

Uprisings originate from Tribes within your

Province, and will try to depose you by destroying

your city.

There will be many different varieties of enemies that

you will encounter, such as Greeks, Etruscans,

Dalmatians, and so on; and each will have distinct

tactical abilities and favored maneuvers in battle. After

you play Caesar II for a while, you will develop a

sense of how each enemy behaves.

Enemies will also have distinct troop types, some of

which may prove to be quite interesting (scouts have

even reported the use of elephants by enemy

cavalries!).

You should try to defeat any type as soon as you can,

and you must not let any hostile parties enter your

capital city. You would also be well advised to send a

strong Cohort to any Tribe (of any size) that is in your

Province. Tribes often produce Uprisings that try to

sack your city.

Invaders themselves come in several varieties,

each of which will have its own style and

techniques of fighting.
