This article is good. I also find the Aduatuci's aid to the Nervians to be an interesting story. If the information is available, I suggest providing just a few more background details about this event. For example, a general map of Gaul would provide the reader a better context in which the battle was fought (the map you have already uploaded is a nice touch). Also, if there is any information as to why the Aduatuci provided military support, if the Nervians were known for anything (e.g. natural resource deposits), etc. you might want to include such details. Finally, you might want to mention how, considering Caesar is the primary source, the information may be somewhat biased. |

I've made a few grammatical (mainly punctuation) changes myself because it's silly to list those on a talk page.
Overall, this seems good. I like the coverage of the Audatuci's background and their assistance of the Nervians. However, the section on their defeat seems a little week. From reading that paragraph, it seems like the Aduatuci surrended, opened their gates, and forfeited their weapons. Still, they managed to attack the Romans that night? although to no avail. How are they attacking without weapons? Did they plan to steal their weapons back? If more information is available, I'd like to see more detail regarding the defeat.
