The fact that the younger Cicero had to be forced to go to sleep by his own soldiers makes me respect him. Any man who cares that much about the defense of the camp and his own men deserves to be seen as a leader who can hold his own.

Man I really love watching blood thirsty boxes fighting till death.

10:19 props to the javelin thrower for throwing the javelin so hard, it stuck on the inside of the opposite wall

I knew Caesar was clever but every time I hear something about him that I hadn't heard before I'm surprised at how clever he actually was.

The square box who plays Caesar is such a good actor. The stoicism, strength, guile and wit is all encompassing with every step, every march and every word the red box speaks. Simply amazing.

I'm going to say this about Quintus Cicero.
He wasn't a military genius. Cause he got like seven guys killed trying to get that first message to Caesar. On the other hand, his own soldiers had to interview in order for the guy to get a break. He was hands on with the defense, and suffered like his soldiers. So, the guy has balls where it counts. In short, I'm with HC's opinion that, while no Caesar, he certainly gave credit to his position.

I thought Quintus did a pretty good job as a Roman garrison commander. Lacking imagination of course but showed some stalwart Roman determination by keep trying and trying until it worked out in the end.

"I almost died!"

"Stop whining.."

"How rude!"

hahahah

Been looking forward to this episode, Ambiorix' ambush happened basically in my backyard! To this day there are hints in the landscape of where the battle took place (small burial hills in the valley, roads and hills named after the Roman commaders or the shedding of blood). Though, these remarks are slowly fading since many of them are incorporated in local folklore. With the local dialect dying out more and more, these memories fade as well. Very interesting to realise what happened more than 2000 years ago in the area where I live now.

7:52 I didn't know I could feel bad for an MS Paint square.

I think Quintus handled the siege really well. He identified the condition he’d need to meet to survive — get word to Caesar and hold out until help arrived. Sending that message was literally a matter of life and death, justifying sending as many messengers as it takes to get through. The fact that so many messengers were sent and all the riders were caught arguably reflects just how dire his circumstances were, making it all the more impressive that he found a way out.

I’m sure Quintus was mediocre in plenty of ways, but I honestly think he handled the siege impressively

The thing I like the most about this series is how all the characters are so humanized, they seem a lot more real than people on a history book, for example cicero, the brother quintus, caesar. And also there is a judgement being passed, for example of whether quintus was an adequate general. This way I have some sort of guideline to start evaluating and forming my own opinion. soo good, more please

"run away!"-roman soldier on wall, who hadn't even left camp yet
"wow this is great we won" -gallic cavalry
smart

[scorpionfiresome]

I really want this guy to make videos more frequently, this is pure gold, no, pure diamond.

[Korkzor]

"Sir we are surrounded"
"Great, now we can charge in all directions....CHAAARGEEE"

[holdinmcgroin]

This Caesar guy is a pretty good commander, i wonder whether he'll win in the end

[livenreloaded]

Every time I see the title 'Caesar in Gaul', I can't help but feel that I'm watching a sitcom.
