170 - 179 AD: The Marcomannic Wars

Marcus Aurelius transforms himself from a bookish philosopher to a master of war as he holds back the onslaught of the Marcommanic coalition. For the first time in centuries, Italy is threatened. Barbarians raid within a dozen miles of Rome. Slowly and painfully, Marcus and his army drive back the invaders.

Just as he seems to be achieving a final peace, a betrayal in the east of the empire draws his attention away.
