Teutonic Thunder on the Orontes

Roman officer or German prince? Corvus is proud of being both. But when he leads his veteran German clubmen to join the Emperor in Syria, his general treats his unit as a bad joke; the Romans are up against the heavily armoured Palmyrene cataphracts - unarmoured barbarians with clubs will be useless! Can Corvus prove him wrong, or will a defeated Empire collapse into another disastrous civil war?
