In 9 AD Rome suffered a brutal defeat at the hands of her secret enemy, Arminius. The humiliation of General Varus echoed around the ancient world, but the Imperial response was not swift. It was only when Germanicus Caesar was appointed Governor of the Gallic provinces that Rome's vengeance began. Over the next few years the young general was to conduct a series of lightning raids and manoeuvres that would take him deep into the heart of German lands and secure a reputation of nigh invincibility for the disgraced Roman army.Cave Canem approaches this short history from the perspective of one of those who served in the ranks of the Roman invaders, not a general or even a foot soldier, but a hound - Ferox. One of the many animals, thrown wantonly into the fray, used to service the implacable ambition of the Roman war machine.
