On the German front, the I and XXX legions began moving on the Marcoman capital of Casurgis. Those Germans had replenished one of their army's numbers since the thrashing they had received from the I Legion the previous year, and General Vettius was keen to smack them back down, striking the Marcomannic army in its fortified camp. A victory was won, though a rather draining one for the I Legion. Fortunately, Flavius Eutychianus and the XXX were not long behind, using their artillery to do most of the heavy lifting in conquering Casurgis.
To the generals' shock, no sooner had they left the newly-subjugated Marcomans than the damnable barbarians had declared war once again! As it turned out, the king of the Marcomans was an oathbound ally of King Alaric of the Visigoths, and Stilicho's declaration of war upon that people compelled their allies to attempt to break free from their new Roman overlords. Vettius and Flavius swiftly rode marched back to Casurgis and whipped its people back into submission (though Flavius was heavily tempted to simply burn the treacherous barbarians to the ground, Vettius was keen to stress the importance of keeping the Marcomans alive as a buffer state.)
The generals were soon pulled apart once more, as Flavius was pulled westwards to Argentoratum. There, the upstart rebel statelet of Gaul had declared war on Rome's Alamannic allies, and moved to try conquering the rest of Maxima Sequanorum. Fortunately, the XXII legion was in place to head their army off, and the two legions besieged the city jointly, reconquering it and bringing an end to the rebels' rule (3/4)
