Fun fact, a Roman legion was actually completely wiped out in Scotland and their eagle was never recovered. The Antonine wall in Scotland marked the most Northern part of the empire. Also, Rome while is held an empire during the time of Julius Caesar, it wasn't actually classified as an empire and they didn't have an emperor or empress. As the empire at the time was ruled by the senate, it was classed as the Republic of Rome. Julius's nephew, Augustus (Gaius Julius Caesar Octavius) was the first true emperor of Rome, turning the Republic into the Empire.

Some misconceptions about the game that should be known. 1.

The romans were even scared to invade Scotland because they knew the Picts would just slaughter them, and would do indescribable things to the pows.

[@Gabriel-ip6me]

Yes, and no. This is a Hollywood style game, not very historically accurate, but there is a little bit of truth. Since this happens in the deep of Caledonia (Modern-day Scotland), the barbarians portrayed here would be the Picts. However this either is a rather poor representation, or they just might be an entirely fictional barbarian tribe. Real life Picts (Painted Ones) were so called because they decorated themselves with colorful tribal tatoos, sometimes covering themselves completely in ink, which gave them a savage and intimidating look. You will notice none of the barbarians here have tatoos. Animal parts and pelts were common in barbarian cultures so at least that's somewhat accurate. Going into battle basically naked was also rather common because of the lack of decent armor and the fact that it was considered the peak of bravery. However, the goat masks and bone armor are not historically accurate as far as I know. Cultures that adorn themselves that way are usually very primitive, stone age tribes, which the picts were not. They look more like something a central african tribe would wear. The axes are somewhat accurate in the sense that it was the most common barbarian weapon. It doesn't look like something the Picts would have used though, they have a latter, viking design.

Our legion was ambushed in the wild realm called Caledonian Forest and was almost completely annihilated. Half of my first cohort is all that was left of the IX legiō. We were pushed into the marsh and we will probably die here, fighting bravely to the end in the name of Rome and the Emperor. We were attacked by a demonic pack of the barbaric Picts. They looked more like wild beasts than humans. Some of them were dressed in animal furs, painted with strange runic signs... others seemed to be two-legged wild beasts. They tore us apart as if we were made of paper! I saw our legatus and my brothers in arms being eaten alive, I will never forget their screams. The barbarians attacked us unnoticed, quickly and with wild fury, then disappeared in the fog. Mainly at night. Our shields, swords and armor were no use here. The enemy we face seems to be the ancient wrath of some dark gods we have awakened. We should never invade these lands. I hear demonic howls, they're coming! They're coming! " Scrap of the papyrus written by Centurion Titus Ursus. Found in October 120AD in the Caledonian Forest. Taken to Rome, where it was presented to the emperor and then burned. Two years later, Emperor Hadrian ordered the construction of a wall on the border of the land called Caledonia, in north Britannia.
