To act preemptively against the apocalypse, Legatus Maximus has quietly assembled a small, tightly knit team for long-range reconnaissance patrols deep into hostile or unknown territory, capable of surviving for extended periods with little or no outside support. Although Legio II Augusta is an elite unit, this A-Team is the best of the best: Each member is a highly respected combat veteran, with at least ten years service in the legions, who was hand-picked for special duty by the Legatus and s/he embodies Roman virtues (valor, toughness, excellence, courage, character, and worth). | To act preemptively against the apocalypse, Legatus Maximus has quietly assembled a small, tightly knit team for long-range reconnaissance patrols deep into hostile or unknown territory, capable of surviving for extended periods with little or no outside support.

Due to the Cryptic Alliances, the A-Team is a clandestine organization, whose existence is unknown to most of Legio II Augusta. In addition to reconnaissance and force reconnaissance, potential missions also include infiltrating enemy camps or cities, under disguise, to gather information (or to sabotage the enemy). | Due to the Cryptic Alliances, the A-Team is a clandestine organization, whose existence is unknown to most of Legio II Augusta.
