76. Devoted to Death
Julius Caesar rushes Further Spain in an attempt to bring the province under his control and consolidate his power in Spain. Meanwhile, in the Illyrian theatre of war (the modern Balkans), Caesar's subordinates, Gaius Antonius and Publius Cornelius Dolabella, suffer crushing defeats. Even defeats can have honor though, and so, 1,000 men from the town of Opitergium decide to set an example in this civil war and refuse to surrender to the Pompeians. The result is as bloody as it is memorable.
