Marching on Hispania

Marcellus gripped the hilt of his spatha as he sat on horseback. He had long since set forth from Italia to invade Gaul and catch the usurper Constantine III in the mountains that bordered Hispania. As he suspected, the moment after his army deployed beyond the borders of the Roman heartland, they had to deal with unruly groups like the Bagaudae and the various Germanic tribes who ravaged the land Constantine was supposed to protect. 

He had just now received word that a group of Vandals had attacked his scouts and forced them to retreat towards the main line. There were roughly three thousand of the enemy in total, and as a result Marcellus led his heavy cavalry forward into the front, to eliminate the minor threat. Since he was now the Emperor, Marcellus no longer had the ability to fight at the front lines. Something that was usually discouraged by Roman Generals, but he had picked up from his interactions with the Gothic Foederati.
