Better Idea. When you write your votes, put Yea and Nay after the numbers. eg, 5 yea 6 nay. makes it easier to read

[68 Powers]

Ave Great Senators,
I vote for Declaration of War on
Kingdom of epirus and tarentum.

Roma Victor!

[Marcus Licinius]

Marcus Licinius Julius enters the senate building.

Fellow Senators the roar of this debate is heard all round the building. I must suggest that we aim to take the southern areas of our great country to prevent the expansion of the Alexandre want-to-be from expanding and gaining too much land and potential profit that should be ours. I am reluctant to vote on this case until surveillance has been conducted on pryus and the state of our legions. Bella, Horida Bella

[We shall fwee...Wode]

I vote that war be avoid and i ask you to consider that facts, Romans are not proffesionals, they are needed to work the land and look after the many estates that make Rome rich, laving them on duty will hurt us severely.

I therefore vote NAY


Declaration of War with the Kingdom of Epirus and City of Tarentum

3 nay - 0 yea

[sanada]

Ancus:

Marcus Licinius Julius has a very valid point- however my vote has been cast, and even if surveillance would be used and Pyrrhus numbers be known, I would still not desire war.

So far great and noble senators the vote is as stands

3 nay - 1 yay

[Exekutor]

Sweep those greeks off italian soil!

Declaration of War with the Kingdom of Epirus and City of Tarentum 3 nay - 2 yay

*I still don't understand why we are voting on declaring a war to somebody we are already at war with *

[Winter]

This is to stop the arguing. If this wins, we attack, if it loses, we ceasefire.

-Lucius Aurelius Lepidus

[Snoopy]

Julius:

Yay.

3 Nay, 3 Yay.

[Solaris]

M. Livius Drusus:

I implore you, Patres, war will only lead to our ruin!

[68 Powers]

Phyruss is nothing to romans and being the supieror people of this land we should take advantage of it.

[Snoopy]

Julius:

Tis true. If we let Pyrrhus grow stronger, he will overtake us. And even IF we stop him in time, the Gauls will gain a foothold and smash us anyway.

[Ataegina]

i vote NO !!

4 no , 3 yes .

[68 Powers]

Ave Great Senators,

Gauls will do nothing to use there are to many free kingdoms in between us.
And if phyruss gets stronger he will overtake us and then what should we do senators?
Strike First or you will be first struck.

Phyruss cannot win if we attack now.

Roma Victor!

[Camp Prefect]

Aulus Flavinius Auxilius:

Let us destroy Pyrrhus before it is too late.

I vote yay.

4 nay - 4 yay

[Marcus Licinius]

I implore you to get the surveillance on Pryus and then i will cast my vote, i can do nothing before then. And as things stand i will have the decider.

[Exekutor]

I implore you to get the surveillance on Pryus and then i will cast my vote, i can do nothing before then. And as things stand i will have the decider.

He has a 3/4 stack with mostly phalanx, just start RS and you see it

[Marcus Licinius]

and our legions.

OOC: i haven't played RS for a month i cant remember and anyway if this is how it starts i can see probems occuring later on

[Snoopy]

Julius:

Lets beat Pyrrhus. However, we shouldn't worry about Sicily. Though we should supply Syracuse. If Carthage wins, they will eventually take Iberia with the extra cash. On the other hand, if Syracuse wins, they will be slaughtered (because Roman troops are better and more land and cash,) or they will attack Carthage instead (which will keep them busy elsewhere.
