[edit] Scenarios
The game's story is broken up into four different scenarios. After each stage is complete, the user is provided with a password that allows them to start at this level in future sessions.
[edit] Stage 1: Pirates Attack
Caesar is currently in the harbor town of Hagia Triada on the isle of Crete with a large contingent of the army. He is on an inspection tour of the Roman colonies. A fleet of warships controlled by pirates appears off the horizon and attack the town. The player must move his troops down from the town towards the water and destroy the enemy's ships.
After reconquering the enemy, Caesar learns that the lead pirate was a former commander in Carthage's army. Because of the pirate's valor displayed during the battle, Caesar allows the pirates to join his ranks. The pirate also tells Caesar about an uprising in Egypt where the palace was taken.
[edit] Stage 2: Egyptian Fleet
The Roman fleet sets sail for Alexandria to quell the rebellion in Egypt and return Cleopatra to power. Along the way, the come across the Egyptian Fleet who engage Caesar's boats for battle. The ships must move towards the enemy ships and protect the landing vessel.
Caesar does not waste any time and quickly destroys the enemy fleet. The captured prisoners give the specifics of the uprising against Cleopatra. Upon landing in Egypt, Caesar finds that the rebels have barricaded all the bridges towards the palace.
[edit] Stage 3: Crossing the Plains
The troops move across multiple bridges spanning two rivers. The enemy troops keep appearing from the palace. The troops must remove the barricades while protecting from the advancing enemy. After reaching the palace gates, Caesar pushes his troops inside.
[edit] Stage 4: Storming the Palace
Once inside of the palace, Caesar's troops must navigate a labyrinth to reach the throne room. The inner chambers have also been barricaded, requiring the troops to dismantle them in order to make forward progress.
The Roman troops capture the head rebel, Pirateus, who Caesars questions to find out who in Rome was orchestrating the coup in Egypt. Although Pirateus refuses to divulge this information, Caesar lets him go free (because he failed to kill Caesar, Pirateus will never be able to return to Rome). Caesar has other things on his mind though.
After a romantic encounter, where he surely took it to the hoop with Cleopatra, Caesar leaves Egypt and sets off for Syria.
